Shower tray repair in Stour Provost

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we handle shower tray repair in Stour Provost

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Stour Provost, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repair or replace in Stour Provost?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Stour Provost

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Stour Provost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SP8 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stour Provost

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When to call us in Stour Provost

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
