Shower tray repair in Priory Vale

What affects the price in Priory Vale

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

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Priory Vale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Shower tray repair in Priory Vale, done in place

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace in Priory Vale?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Common questions in Priory Vale

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Swindon.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Priory Vale included. Travel is included in the price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What we’re called out for in Priory Vale

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Common reasons people in Priory Vale contact us include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
