Landlord and trade work in Glewstone

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Glewstone

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Glewstone?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Glewstone. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
