Shower tray repair for Whitwick homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitwick

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitwick as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

About our shower tray repair in Whitwick

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We are often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, in cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Whitwick and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Do you need shower tray repair in Whitwick?

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Whitwick: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you come to Whitwick?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 typically cheaper.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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