Shower tray repair near Charlton Mackrell

Questions from Charlton Mackrell

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How long before I can shower?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Shower tray repair in Charlton Mackrell, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked shower tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Charlton Mackrell

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton Mackrell

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Charlton Mackrell

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.
