Shower tray repair in Silverdale, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Silverdale as everywhere else we work.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Silverdale: your questions answered

Do you cover Silverdale?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Silverdale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Silverdale included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Silverdale?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Landlord and trade work in Silverdale

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace in Silverdale?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Common problems we fix in Silverdale

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Comparing quotes

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.
