Shower tray repair near Ullesthorpe

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

About our shower tray repair in Ullesthorpe

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. We are often asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and chips on the edges, across stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Ullesthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Landlord and trade work in Ullesthorpe

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ullesthorpe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van 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’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

FAQs for Ullesthorpe

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

The entire UK, including all of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover Ullesthorpe?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ullesthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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

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
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Ullesthorpe?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
