Shower tray repair near Oakfield

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Questions from Oakfield

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the next day.

Do you come to Oakfield?

We do. We send a technician to Oakfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

When to call us in Oakfield

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
