How we handle shower tray repair in Wain Lee

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can help.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 pictures.

What affects the price in Wain Lee

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Wain Lee

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repairing versus replacing in Wain Lee

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Wain Lee questions

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
