Honest limits

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Common problems we fix in Page Bank

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Page Bank

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our prices page.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Page Bank

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Are there extra charges for Page Bank?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Page Bank get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
