Shower tray repair in Merstone without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and a dull, stained or worn surface, on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Merstone

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Merstone

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

How to care for the repair

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

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Merstone

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Merstone. Prices do not change with location.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Merstone

For anyone letting property in or around Merstone, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take 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. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

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 are under no obligation.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
