Shower tray repair for Wentbridge homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wentbridge

For anyone letting property in or around Wentbridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Shower tray repair at your home in Wentbridge

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and chipped corners or rims, we can help, on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Wentbridge: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Wentbridge is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Wentbridge

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
