About our shower tray repair in Sheffield

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and people most often call us about scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we are called out for in Sheffield

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

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sheffield

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sheffield use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Common questions in Sheffield

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it messy?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Sheffield get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
