Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

About our shower tray repair in Sefton

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 so the repair blends in. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sefton

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Sefton

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Sefton and the rest of Sefton. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Repair or replace in Sefton?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.

When to call us in Sefton

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Our hiring checklist

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
