Shower tray repair in Witherslack

Witherslack: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?

Across the UK, and that includes Witherslack. Prices don’t change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Shower tray repair in Witherslack without replacing anything

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. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most often call us about chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Landlord and trade work in Witherslack

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace in Witherslack?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

What we work on
