Signs you need shower tray repair in Shenington

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches in the surface

Common questions in Shenington

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will it make a mess?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Shenington.

Repair or replace in Shenington?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What affects the price in Shenington

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Shenington

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
