Shower tray repair in Rackheath

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we handle shower tray repair in Rackheath

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for chipped corners or rims and scuffs and light scratches, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Rackheath questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Rackheath?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you come to Rackheath?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Rackheath from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Most clients in Rackheath get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
