Shower tray repair in Westow

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Westow. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Westow

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Westow

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
