About our shower tray repair in Bradfield St Clare

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 crack does not come back. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and scuffs and light scratches, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

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

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bradfield St Clare

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
