Shower tray repair for Willisham homes

About our shower tray repair in Willisham

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace in Willisham?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Willisham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

What we work on

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

When to call us in Willisham

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Willisham

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Willisham questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.
