About our shower tray repair in Whitchurch

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Whitchurch

If you manage property in Whitchurch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common problems we fix in Whitchurch

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Look out for these signs:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Repair or replace in Whitchurch?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Whitchurch questions

Do you come to Whitchurch?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Whitchurch from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Whitchurch. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Whitchurch, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
