Shower tray repair near Ringsfield

Shower tray repair in Ringsfield without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic alike.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • 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 will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Ringsfield: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover Ringsfield?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When to call us in Ringsfield

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.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
