Shower tray repair in Rowford

Shower tray repair at your home in Rowford

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 will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Rowford and across Somerset.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • 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 before you book.

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Rowford: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

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.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. 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.
