Shower tray repair near Paulton

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

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

About our shower tray repair in Paulton

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and chipped corners or rims, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Paulton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Paulton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Landlord and trade work in Paulton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Paulton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Paulton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Your questions about shower tray repair in Paulton

How long before I can shower?

Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
