Shower tray repair in Torkington

Shower tray repair in Torkington without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and a cracked shower tray.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Questions from Torkington

Do you cover Torkington?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Torkington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Torkington?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Torkington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Torkington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
