Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Do you need shower tray repair in Cold Overton?

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cold Overton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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