Shower tray repair in Bracebridge

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Bracebridge and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

About our shower tray repair in Bracebridge

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix damage around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Materials we work on in Bracebridge

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bracebridge

How much does shower tray repair cost in Bracebridge?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

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.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bracebridge

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bracebridge use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
