Willenhall questions

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Willenhall?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CV3 postcode.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Willenhall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Willenhall

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Common reasons people in Willenhall contact us are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Willenhall, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
