About our shower tray repair in Drybrook

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and a damaged area around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Drybrook

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Drybrook

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. 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 jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Drybrook clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Drybrook

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Drybrook?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Drybrook and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
