You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

When to call us in Twynholm

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Twynholm, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Twynholm

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Will it make a mess?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Twynholm included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Twynholm?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can landlords book you?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. 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.
