Shower tray repair for Clifton homes

Shower tray repair in Clifton, done in place

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Clifton. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Clifton

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clifton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repair or replace in Clifton?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Clifton: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Clifton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Clifton

  • Cast iron
