Shower tray repair for Rowarth homes

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

About our shower tray repair in Rowarth

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

FAQs for Rowarth

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

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 will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Rowarth

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Common reasons people in Rowarth contact us are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, 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. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
