Shower tray repair in Wrafton

Do you need shower tray repair in Wrafton?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Shower tray repair in Wrafton, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a crack across the base and damage around the waste, across enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Repairing versus replacing in Wrafton

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wrafton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Wrafton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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 information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
