Shower tray repair for Tytherington homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Tytherington

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What affects the price in Tytherington

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Tytherington

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
