How we handle shower tray repair in Rumworth

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. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Rumworth: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you come to Rumworth?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Rumworth and the rest of Bolton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Rumworth and the rest of Bolton. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Rumworth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bolton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rumworth. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Rumworth, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
