Shower tray repair for Hewish homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Hewish

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and damage from a refit or building work, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Hewish?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, 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 we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Hewish, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Questions from Hewish

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Hewish included. Travel is included in the price.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Hewish?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
