Shower tray repair for Englishcombe homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Englishcombe

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 a crack across the base and damage from a refit or building work, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, 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 damage the floor below.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic

Common problems we fix in Englishcombe

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Your questions about shower tray repair in Englishcombe

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bath and North East Somerset.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Englishcombe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Englishcombe

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
