Shower tray repair for Filleigh homes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Shower tray repair at your home in Filleigh

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and a tray that flexes.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Filleigh

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

FAQs for Filleigh

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
