Shower tray repair in Rawmarsh

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 also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

About our shower tray repair in Rawmarsh

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes, in acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Rawmarsh questions

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Rawmarsh

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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