Questions from Whittington Moor

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How long before I can shower?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs

What affects the price in Whittington Moor

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
