Shower tray repair near St Germans

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairing versus replacing in St Germans

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

St Germans: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in St Germans?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Common problems we fix in St Germans

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Germans

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. 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 work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Germans as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
