Book shower tray repair in Stapleton

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

About our shower tray repair in Stapleton

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Stapleton

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Stapleton. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

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 pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Repair or replace in Stapleton?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • One price list for the entire UK

Common questions in Stapleton

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
