What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day 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. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Shower tray repair in Pelton Fell without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Pelton Fell questions

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repairing versus replacing in Pelton Fell

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. 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.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Pelton Fell. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pelton Fell, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Do you need shower tray repair in Pelton Fell?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
