Shower tray repair in Old Sarum

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Sarum use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we handle shower tray repair in Old Sarum

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, across acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Old Sarum. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Old Sarum, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Does someone need to be in?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
