Shower tray repair near Tolgullow

Shower tray repair at your home in Tolgullow

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a crack across the base and a tray that flexes, across enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common questions in Tolgullow

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Tolgullow is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it

What affects the price in Tolgullow

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tolgullow, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

Landlord and trade work in Tolgullow

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolgullow use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
