How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Shower tray repair in Todhills, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Typical jobs include movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste, in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Todhills

Repair or replace in Todhills?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Todhills questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What we’re called out for in Todhills

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Todhills

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
