Shower tray repair in Gipsyville, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can generally put it right, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Gipsyville

When to call us in Gipsyville

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Common reasons people in Gipsyville contact us include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage from a refit or building work

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Gipsyville

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you work in Gipsyville?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Gipsyville from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in Gipsyville

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
