Shower tray repair in Meriden, done in place

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and damage around the waste, we can typically put it right, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Meriden

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Meriden use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Meriden

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Meriden: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
