Shower tray repair in Walton on the Wolds

How we handle shower tray repair in Walton on the Wolds

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

FAQs for Walton on the Wolds

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What affects the price in Walton on the Wolds

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Walton on the Wolds. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Walton on the Wolds. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Do you need shower tray repair in Walton on the Wolds?

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

  • When it can be used again

  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walton on the Wolds

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walton on the Wolds use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
