Shower tray repair at your home in Bulstrode

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bulstrode

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bulstrode use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Questions from Bulstrode

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Bulstrode. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you cover Bulstrode?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bulstrode from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bulstrode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Repair or replace in Bulstrode?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Read our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
