How we handle shower tray repair in Wilshaw

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. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, we can help.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wilshaw. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Wilshaw get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Wilshaw

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

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Wilshaw customers choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wilshaw

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t 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 it’s worth repairing early.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
