Shower tray repair for The Hacket homes

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around The Hacket, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Shower tray repair in The Hacket without replacing anything

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 is the case. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in The Hacket and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How to compare quotes

The Hacket questions

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover The Hacket?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to The Hacket from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Can I fix it myself?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in The Hacket

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • 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 don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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.
