Shower tray repair for Bruton homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Bruton

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Bruton

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bruton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

FAQs for Bruton

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bruton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
