Shower tray repair in Wrightington, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We are often asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

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 normally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

FAQs for Wrightington

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Wrightington?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WN6 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
