Trusted shower tray repair in Woodchurch

Shower tray repair at your home in Woodchurch

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste, in ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

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

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Woodchurch: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Woodchurch?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TN26 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What information do you need?

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we’re called out for in Woodchurch

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
