Shower tray repair in Parkgrove without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we’re called out for in Parkgrove

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Parkgrove questions

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

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you come to Parkgrove?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are there extra charges for Parkgrove?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

Repair or replace in Parkgrove?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
