Shower tray repair in Hampton in Arden

Should you replace it?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hampton in Arden

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hampton in Arden

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

FAQs for Hampton in Arden

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Hampton in Arden?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hampton in Arden for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

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

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
