Shower tray repair in East Budleigh

Shower tray repair in East Budleigh without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and damage from a refit or building work, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

East Budleigh: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Budleigh. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in East Budleigh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
