Shower tray repair in Sawley

Shower tray repair in Sawley without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about movement when you stand on it and chips or cracks by the plughole.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

FAQs for Sawley

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Sawley. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you’re in Sawley and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HG4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
