Shower tray repair in Winllan

How we handle shower tray repair in Winllan

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common questions in Winllan

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Winllan?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Landlord and trade work in Winllan

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

What we are called out for in Winllan

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Winllan

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
