Your questions about shower tray repair in Ringstead

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Shower tray repair at your home in Ringstead

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’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and chipped corners or rims, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

If you’re in Ringstead and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ringstead use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ringstead

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
