Shower tray repair for Bodenham homes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Shower tray repair in Bodenham, done in place

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 so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that flexes, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bodenham as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us 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.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bodenham, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Bodenham questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

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

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Bodenham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
