Shower tray repair for Whitemoor homes

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Shower tray repair in Whitemoor, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Whitemoor

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets 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 protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

What affects the price in Whitemoor

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

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

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Whitemoor get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
