Shower tray repair for Pennant homes

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

About our shower tray repair in Pennant

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 explain what we find. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

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

Pennant questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you come to Pennant?

We do. We send a technician to Pennant for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, 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. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Pennant, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What affects the price in Pennant

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pennant. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
