Shower tray repair near Foul Anchor

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Shower tray repair at your home in Foul Anchor

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

FAQs for Foul Anchor

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Will the price change on the day?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Foul Anchor

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Foul Anchor. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
