Shower tray repair at your home in Melvich
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Landlord and trade work in Melvich

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Melvich as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Melvich
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Melvich: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Melvich?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your KW14 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should you replace it?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- One price list for the entire UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
