Shower tray repair in Holt Wood

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Shower tray repair in Holt Wood, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can typically put it right, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Homes around Holt Wood often have showers added to older buildings, and we always check the tray’s support first.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Holt Wood

Do you cover villages like Holt Wood?

We do: small places like Holt Wood are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there’s no second trip.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.

  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. For a rural home like those around Holt Wood, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our Prices page.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
