Shower tray repair for South Hiendley homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Shower tray repair at your home in South Hiendley

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work, on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

We do. Repair technicians travel to South Hiendley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Landlord and trade work in South Hiendley

If you manage property in South Hiendley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need shower tray repair in South Hiendley?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the colour is matched

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
