Shower tray repair in Tregew

Shower tray repair in Tregew without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and damage from a refit or building work, across acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Tregew

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in Tregew?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What we are called out for in Tregew

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Tregew

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
