Shower tray repair near Summerley

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

About our shower tray repair in Summerley

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting, we can help, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Questions from Summerley

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

When can I use the shower again?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Summerley

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Summerley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Summerley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
