Shower tray repair for Springwood homes

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Springwood. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Springwood

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How soon can you come?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
