Shower tray repair in Walshaw

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Shower tray repair at your home in Walshaw

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

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

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Walshaw

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Walshaw questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bury and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Common problems we fix in Walshaw

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
