About our shower tray repair in Padeswood

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

Common questions in Padeswood

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do you cover the whole of Flintshire?

All of Flintshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When to call us in Padeswood

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

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Padeswood and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
