Shower tray repair in Payhembury

Repairing versus replacing in Payhembury

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we handle shower tray repair in Payhembury

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Whether it’s damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Payhembury

If you manage property in Payhembury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

Do you need shower tray repair in Payhembury?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

FAQs for Payhembury

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you charge for travel?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
