Shower tray repair near Radley

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Shower tray repair at your home in Radley

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re often asked to fix a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, in cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Radley. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Questions from Radley

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Radley and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Radley

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
