Shower tray repair in Coveney

Shower tray repair at your home in Coveney

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and chips or cracks by the plughole, across stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlord and trade work in Coveney

For anyone letting property in or around Coveney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coveney as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

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.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Coveney, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Do you need shower tray repair in Coveney?

Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Coveney: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
