FAQs for Shrivenham

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Shrivenham?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

When can you do it?

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Shower tray repair in Shrivenham without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface, we can help.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shrivenham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Shrivenham. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Do you need shower tray repair in Shrivenham?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shrivenham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
