Need shower tray repair in South Cheriton?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Shower tray repair at your home in South Cheriton

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips on the edges and a crack across the base.

In a village like South Cheriton, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where timber floors can move. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for South Cheriton

Can you fix shower trays at a school or business in South Cheriton?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We will agree timings that suit the building.

I let a flat near Templecombe station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly, and a repair between tenants is usually quicker than replacing.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What affects the price in South Cheriton

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Older homes around South Cheriton may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why South Cheriton customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it. In a village or hamlet like South Cheriton, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

What we are called out for in South Cheriton

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Landlords with property near Templecombe station (about 1.4 miles south-east) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
