Questions from South Pill

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you work in South Pill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to South Pill. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How we handle shower tray repair in South Pill

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in South Pill

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in South Pill

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our pricing.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Advice

Landlord and trade work in South Pill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Signs you need shower tray repair in South Pill

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
