What we are called out for in Tiverton

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Tiverton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Are you accredited?

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Tiverton. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Tiverton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Tiverton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tiverton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
