Trusted shower tray repair in Colgrain

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

Shower tray repair in Colgrain, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and chips on the edges, across enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Colgrain

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

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Advice

FAQs for Colgrain

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

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

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

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

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Colgrain

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colgrain use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
