Shower tray repair in Newbury

Shower tray repair in Newbury, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Newbury and across Wiltshire.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

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

Newbury questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to Newbury?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What affects the price in Newbury

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newbury. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BA12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Do you need shower tray repair in Newbury?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
