Shower tray repair in Sacombe Green

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SG12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Shower tray repair in Sacombe Green without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can help, on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Sacombe Green and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Sacombe Green

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sacombe Green use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
