DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace in West Broughton?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to West Broughton. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about shower tray repair in West Broughton

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

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

When to call us in West Broughton

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
