Shower tray repair for Ronkswood homes

Shower tray repair in Ronkswood, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with cracks running from the waste and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.

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

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Ronkswood

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Ronkswood questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Work for landlords and builders

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ronkswood?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ronkswood. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
