Shower tray repair in Coombe Hill

Shower tray repair in Coombe Hill without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and a crack across the base.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coombe Hill

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Coombe Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Coombe Hill

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Coombe Hill.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.

Do you cover Coombe Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Coombe Hill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Coombe Hill

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Repairing versus replacing in Coombe Hill

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
