Need shower tray repair in Whiston Cross?

Shower tray repair in Whiston Cross without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How the visit works

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

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need shower tray repair in Whiston Cross?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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

Questions from Whiston Cross

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
