Your questions about shower tray repair in Riseholme

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work in Riseholme?

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Riseholme, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Riseholme

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
