Shower tray repair for High Wych homes

What affects the price in High Wych

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for High Wych. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Shower tray repair in High Wych, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in High Wych

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our pricing.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in High Wych

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes

High Wych questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How much does shower tray repair cost in High Wych?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CM21 postcode.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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