How we handle shower tray repair in West Newton

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re often asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

When to call us in West Newton

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t 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 pictures.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in West Newton

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes West Newton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
