How we handle shower tray repair in Pencombe

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

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

Common problems we fix in Pencombe

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Common reasons people in Pencombe contact us are:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Pencombe

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
