Trusted shower tray repair in Kingwood Common

Shower tray repair in Kingwood Common without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and chips or cracks by the plughole, across acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Are there extra charges for Kingwood Common?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

Can landlords book you?

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingwood Common

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

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

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

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