Shower tray repair in Oxnam, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Oxnam questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it messy?

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

Do you come to Oxnam?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Oxnam. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxnam

If you manage property in Oxnam, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
