Trusted shower tray repair in Whitle

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Shower tray repair at your home in Whitle

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can normally put it right.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Common questions in Whitle

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Whitle?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Whitle

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitle. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
