Shower tray repair in Fonthill Gifford

Shower tray repair at your home in Fonthill Gifford

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and chips caused during fitting.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Fonthill Gifford and across Wiltshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Fonthill Gifford

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Fonthill Gifford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

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

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Do you cover Fonthill Gifford?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fonthill Gifford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

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

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens after I send pictures?

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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
