Trusted shower tray repair in Lower Basildon

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Basildon

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Lower Basildon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

When to call us in Lower Basildon

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Lower Basildon questions

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you cover Lower Basildon?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Lower Basildon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does it take to cure?

Usually the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
