Shower tray repair near Countess Wear

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Shower tray repair at your home in Countess Wear

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and movement when you stand on it, in stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Countess Wear

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Countess Wear

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Do you need shower tray repair in Countess Wear?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
