Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Shower tray repair in Tormarton, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and chips on the edges, across ceramic, stone resin and acrylic.

In a village like Tormarton, showers are often later additions to older homes, and we always check the tray’s support first.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tormarton and across South Gloucestershire.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. In an older home in a village like Tormarton, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common problems we fix in Tormarton

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface

Rented homes near Yate station (about 4.9 miles north-west) change hands frequently, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go. For a rural address like Tormarton, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • 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. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
