Shower tray repair near Port Navas

What affects the price in Port Navas

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How we handle shower tray repair in Port Navas

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that flexes, we can help, whatever the material.

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

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before booking

FAQs for Port Navas

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do you come to Port Navas?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Port Navas and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
