Shower tray repair in Street

Shower tray repair at your home in Street

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches, on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Street

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Street

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Street

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

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

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
