Shower tray repair in Westerhope

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Shower tray repair in Westerhope, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s chips on the edges and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Westerhope

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

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

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you work in Westerhope?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Westerhope from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I have to be there?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Westerhope

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos

  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
