Shower tray repair in Pemberton

Shower tray repair in Pemberton, done in place

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Pemberton: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long does it take to cure?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Pemberton?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
