Need shower tray repair in Somerton?

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Somerton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NP19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

About our shower tray repair in Somerton

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches in the surface and chipped corners or rims.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common questions in Somerton

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you cover Somerton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Somerton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

For landlords and businesses

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Get a quote

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
