Trusted shower tray repair in Townsend

Shower tray repair at your home in Townsend

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips on the edges, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about shower tray repair in Townsend

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Townsend included. Travel is included in the price.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Townsend. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Townsend?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Do you need shower tray repair in Townsend?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
