Shower tray repair in Willingham

About our shower tray repair in Willingham

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and chipped corners or rims, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Willingham: your questions answered

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Willingham. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
