Trusted shower tray repair in Poulton-le-Fylde

Shower tray repair at your home in Poulton-le-Fylde

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Poulton-le-Fylde use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repairing versus replacing in Poulton-le-Fylde

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Poulton-le-Fylde. The price comes down to:

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

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
