Shower tray repair near Colcot

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Colcot, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Shower tray repair in Colcot, 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 regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

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

When to call us in Colcot

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, 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 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 entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about shower tray repair in Colcot

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you come to Colcot?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Colcot and the rest of the Vale of Glamorgan. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Colcot. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Colcot, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
