Trusted shower tray repair in Oakenshaw

Shower tray repair in Oakenshaw, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and chips caused during fitting, in acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Oakenshaw questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Oakenshaw is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oakenshaw use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common problems we fix in Oakenshaw

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Oakenshaw, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
