Shower tray repair near Foxhole

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Foxhole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Foxhole, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Do you need shower tray repair in Foxhole?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Swansea and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
