Book shower tray repair in Hereford

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Shower tray repair at your home in Hereford

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges.

Newer homes and refits in Hereford often have stone resin trays, which crack if the base underneath is not solid. We check the tray is firm before we repair it.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hereford and across Herefordshire.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Hereford, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

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

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Hereford

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Facilities teams at buildings such as Lord Scudamore Primary Academy can book us for changing-room showers too.

Questions from Hereford

Do you take on commercial work in Hereford?

Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. We will agree timings that suit the building.

I let a flat near Hereford station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days. Visits in Hereford are booked like anywhere else, with a time agreed beforehand. For flats and busy streets, let us know about parking and stairs.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. In rentals around Hereford, replacing can keep a property empty for longer, whereas a repair is normally a one-day job.

Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
