Shower Tray Repair in West Berkshire

How shower tray repair works in West Berkshire

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better.

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Common problems we fix in West Berkshire

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

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to West Berkshire. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Questions from West Berkshire

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Do you cover West Berkshire?

We do. Repair technicians travel to West Berkshire from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How long does it take to cure?

Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
