Shower tray repair in Tarleton

Shower tray repair in Tarleton, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s damage around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, we can help, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Tarleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Tarleton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
