Shower tray repair in Skitham without replacing anything

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. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

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 early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Do you need shower tray repair in Skitham?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Skitham

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Skitham and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

If you are in Skitham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
