Shower tray repair near Ravenscraig

Shower tray repair at your home in Ravenscraig

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include scratches in the surface and a damaged area around the waste, on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

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

What we are called out for in Ravenscraig

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Ravenscraig

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ravenscraig?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you come to Ravenscraig?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ravenscraig and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

All of North Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
