Shower tray repair in Uttoxeter

Shower tray repair in Uttoxeter, done in place

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit.

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

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Signs you need shower tray repair in Uttoxeter

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Uttoxeter. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Uttoxeter: your questions answered

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in Uttoxeter?

We do. We send a technician to Uttoxeter for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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