Shower tray repair in Newtown without replacing anything

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips on the edges.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Newtown

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the following day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it messy?

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

What we are called out for in Newtown

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

Clients typically contact us about:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Newtown

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

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 over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
