About our shower tray repair in Ab Lench

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a cracked shower tray, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Ab Lench and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Ab Lench

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you work in Ab Lench?

We do. Technicians travel to Ab Lench from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ab Lench

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ab Lench. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Ab Lench and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

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