Shower tray repair for Pensford homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Pensford

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

When to call us in Pensford

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips on the edges

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Pensford. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pensford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common questions in Pensford

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

When can you do it?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
