Trusted shower tray repair in Bullington

How we handle shower tray repair in Bullington

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

What affects the price in Bullington

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bullington, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Bullington questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Bullington

  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
