Shower tray repair for Cheltenham homes

FAQs for Cheltenham

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Cheltenham?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Shower tray repair at your home in Cheltenham

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 ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Cheltenham

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

Repair or replace in Cheltenham?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
