Shower tray repair in Thornhills without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and chips or cracks by the plughole, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Thornhills

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the whole of Calderdale?

The entire UK, including all of Calderdale. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How long before I can shower?

Normally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Thornhills

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Thornhills

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
