Trusted shower tray repair in Locking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Shower tray repair in Locking without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Locking

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Locking. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • One price list for the whole UK

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Locking use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Locking

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you cover the whole of North Somerset?

Everywhere in the UK, Locking included. Travel is included in the price.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you come to Locking?

We do. Technicians travel to Locking from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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