Shower tray repair in Kimbridge

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we work on in Kimbridge

Shower tray repair in Kimbridge without replacing anything

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. We are frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste, on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairing versus replacing in Kimbridge

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kimbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business

10 questions to ask before booking

Kimbridge: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What do you need from me?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

Across the UK, so Kimbridge is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
