Shower tray repair for Buckover homes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Shower tray repair in Buckover without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Buckover and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Buckover. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Buckover. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Buckover

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover Buckover?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Buckover and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do the materials smell?

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

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, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer 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. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

What we’re called out for in Buckover

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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