Shower tray repair for Bodelva homes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

About our shower tray repair in Bodelva

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We’re frequently asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and edge chips from dropped bottles, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Bodelva

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

Across the UK, so Bodelva is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Repairing versus replacing in Bodelva

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bodelva. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bodelva

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
