How we handle shower tray repair in Whitecross

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and damage from a refit or building work.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Whitecross

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

Common problems we fix in Whitecross

Common reasons people in Whitecross contact us are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

How to compare quotes

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Whitecross: your questions answered

Do you cover Whitecross?

We do. We send a technician to Whitecross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the next day.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repairing versus replacing in Whitecross

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

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