Trusted shower tray repair in Beaford

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

How we handle shower tray repair in Beaford

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are often asked to fix a damaged area around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

When to call us in Beaford

Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

FAQs for Beaford

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Beaford.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What affects the price in Beaford

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Beaford. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Beaford, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
