When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Newbridge

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need shower tray repair in Newbridge?

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

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. 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 how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Your questions about shower tray repair in Newbridge

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you work in Newbridge?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Newbridge and the rest of Wolverhampton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Newbridge?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Newbridge, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
