Trusted shower tray repair in West Hackney

Shower tray repair at your home in West Hackney

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What affects the price in West Hackney

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.

FAQs for West Hackney

Do you cover West Hackney?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to West Hackney and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Hackney.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. 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 price.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
