Shower tray repair near Overton

What affects the price in Overton

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

How we handle shower tray repair in Overton

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and edge chips from dropped bottles, on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

  • Stone resin

Questions from Overton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When to call us in Overton

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Overton

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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
