Signs you need shower tray repair in Kingston St Mary

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

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

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Kingston St Mary

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

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive 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, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
