Shower tray repair in Galton Village

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Galton Village. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Galton Village. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Shower tray repair in Galton Village, done in place

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Galton Village

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you cover the entire of Sandwell?

We cover the whole UK, including Galton Village and the rest of Sandwell. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
