Repairing versus replacing in Mancetter

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Mancetter

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Mancetter: your questions answered

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
