Shower tray repair near Freshwater East

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Shower tray repair in Freshwater East without replacing anything

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. We are frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and snagging damage in a new bathroom, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Pembrokeshire.

What affects the price in Freshwater East

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Freshwater East, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What we are called out for in Freshwater East

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Freshwater East

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Do you come to Freshwater East?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Freshwater East for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Freshwater East?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
