How we handle shower tray repair in Wheatley

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that flexes.

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

FAQs for Wheatley

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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 will ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wheatley

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repairs by material

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
