Choosing a repair company

Shower tray repair at your home in Buttermere

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

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

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Buttermere questions

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you come to Buttermere?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Buttermere and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

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

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
