Shower tray repair in Willingham, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and a tray that flexes.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Willingham

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Willingham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is it messy?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Repairing versus replacing in Willingham

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

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

Advice

Signs you need shower tray repair in Willingham

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Willingham

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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