Shower tray repair near Swinton

How we handle shower tray repair in Swinton

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Swinton: your questions answered

What information do you need?

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

Do you cover Swinton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Swinton and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swinton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swinton

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. 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 Swinton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

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