Shower tray repair near Fleet

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Fleet questions

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Fleet?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fleet

For anyone letting property in or around Fleet, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price
