About our shower tray repair in Sloothby

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. If you’re dealing with cracks running from the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Common questions in Sloothby

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LN13 postcode.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does it take to cure?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When to call us in Sloothby

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

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

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

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

Repair or replace in Sloothby?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
