Shower tray repair in Thomastown

Shower tray repair in Thomastown without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with a crack across the base and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common questions in Thomastown

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Thomastown?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you work in Thomastown?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thomastown. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in Thomastown

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
