How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Kington Magna questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Kington Magna?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Are there extra charges for Kington Magna?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kington Magna

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Kington Magna?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kington Magna. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Kington Magna get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit 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 generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not 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 photos.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
