Shower tray repair for Runham homes

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

About our shower tray repair in Runham

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. If you’re dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and movement when you stand on it, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Common problems we fix in Runham

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Runham

For anyone letting property in or around Runham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Runham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Runham

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Runham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
