Need shower tray repair in West Lyng?

West Lyng: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

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 there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Shower tray repair in West Lyng, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and scratches in the surface, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Lyng

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in West Lyng

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West Lyng. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
