Shower tray repair in Thackley

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Shower tray repair in Thackley, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and a crack across the base.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford.

Questions from Thackley

When can you do it?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Thackley

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thackley

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Thackley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Thackley

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
