About our shower tray repair in Wall Hill

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When to call us in Wall Hill

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Wall Hill contact us include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wall Hill

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Wall Hill?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Repairing versus replacing in Wall Hill

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
