Shower tray repair for Argos Hill homes

Shower tray repair in Argos Hill, done in place

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Argos Hill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Argos Hill

When can I use the shower again?

Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Argos Hill?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Argos Hill?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Argos Hill contact us are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Argos Hill

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
