Your questions about shower tray repair in East Pennard

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

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

Do you work in East Pennard?

We do. Technicians travel to East Pennard from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Pennard. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in East Pennard, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job 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 check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
