Shower tray repair in New Marston

Shower tray repair in New Marston, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in New Marston

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you work in New Marston?

We do. Repair technicians travel to New Marston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How soon can you come?

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

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Marston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Repairing versus replacing in New Marston

Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Marston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Do you need shower tray repair in New Marston?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

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

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
