Shower tray repair at your home in Northover

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

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 usually the cheaper route.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is there a guarantee?

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Most clients in Northover get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Northover

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Northover

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
