Your questions about shower tray repair in Great Shelford

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Shower tray repair in Great Shelford without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Shelford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace in Great Shelford?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our full price list.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlord and trade work in Great Shelford

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Great Shelford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Getting a price from pictures

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Great Shelford?

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
