Shower tray repair near Malmesbury

Shower tray repair at your home in Malmesbury

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage around the waste.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

Do you need shower tray repair in Malmesbury?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairing versus replacing in Malmesbury

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Malmesbury: your questions answered

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Malmesbury is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Malmesbury, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Malmesbury

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
