Trusted shower tray repair in Threlkeld

Shower tray repair in Threlkeld, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and chips on the edges.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Threlkeld: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Are there extra charges for Threlkeld?

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

Do you cover Threlkeld?

We do. Technicians travel to Threlkeld from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Repair or replace in Threlkeld?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Threlkeld. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
