Shower tray repair near Welton

Shower tray repair in Welton, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface, across enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common questions in Welton

Do you charge for travel?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Welton

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Welton?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Welton?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
