Need shower tray repair in Withnell Fold?

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

About our shower tray repair in Withnell Fold

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

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

Questions from Withnell Fold

Will there be a smell?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

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

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we’re called out for in Withnell Fold

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Withnell Fold

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

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 normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we do, step by step

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 the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
