Shower tray repair in Gloucester, done in place

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and chipped corners or rims, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Do you need shower tray repair in Gloucester?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Look out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gloucester. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gloucester

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gloucester as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
