Shower tray repair for Pear Tree homes

Shower tray repair in Pear Tree, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and light scratches and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derby.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Pear Tree

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common reasons people in Pear Tree contact us include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

FAQs for Pear Tree

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

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

How long before I can shower?

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

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

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

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What affects the price in Pear Tree

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pear Tree. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
