Shower tray repair near Shut Heath

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

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.

Shower tray repair in Shut Heath, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Shut Heath?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

When we would advise against a repair

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shut Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shut Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Shut Heath, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Shut Heath

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Are there extra charges for Shut Heath?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
