Shower tray repair near Posenhall

Shower tray repair in Posenhall without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about movement when you stand on it and scratches from cleaning or grit.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Common questions in Posenhall

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What we are called out for in Posenhall

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Repair or replace in Posenhall?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
