Signs you need shower tray repair in Slattocks

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

Our hiring checklist

Shower tray repair in Slattocks without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and damage around the waste, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Common questions in Slattocks

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Slattocks

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

You don’t 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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 booking.
