Shower tray repair for Welham homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Welham

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and chips on the edges, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Welham

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Welham

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you come to Welham?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Welham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welham

For developers and builders, we fix 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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairing versus replacing in Welham

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
