Shower tray repair in Manningford Abbots

Shower tray repair in Manningford Abbots without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and chips caused during fitting, across ceramic, cast iron and acrylic.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

When to call us in Manningford Abbots

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Manningford Abbots

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Are there extra charges for Manningford Abbots?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in Manningford Abbots

If you manage property in Manningford Abbots, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
