Shower tray repair at your home in Parkgate

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re frequently asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Parkgate

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Parkgate

A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Parkgate

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Parkgate. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Parkgate: your questions answered

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Parkgate?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you come to Parkgate?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Parkgate. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
