Repairing versus replacing in Buckland in the Moor

Buckland in the Moor questions

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens next?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Buckland in the Moor?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ13 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When to call us in Buckland in the Moor

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
