Shower tray repair for Ferryside homes

Shower tray repair in Ferryside without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ferryside as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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

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

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ferryside

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ferryside. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ferryside, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we’re called out for in Ferryside

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A cracked shower tray

Comparing quotes

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
