Shower tray repair for Slapton homes

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Shower tray repair in Slapton without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Repair or replace in Slapton?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Slapton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Slapton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

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.

Common questions in Slapton

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Are there extra charges for Slapton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Slapton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Slapton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Slapton?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, normally along the edges or by the waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
