Shower Tray Repair across Swindon

About shower tray repair in Swindon

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and scuffs and light scratches.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place.

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Common problems we fix in Swindon

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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