Book shower tray repair in Wakerley

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Most clients in Wakerley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Shower tray repair in Wakerley, 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. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Repairing versus replacing in Wakerley

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wakerley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
