Shower tray repair near Treleigh

Shower tray repair in Treleigh, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

Landlords, agents and businesses in Treleigh

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Repair or replace in Treleigh?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Treleigh customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What affects the price in Treleigh

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Treleigh. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • 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 price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. 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 price.

What happens on the day

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

  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. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Treleigh

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

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips on the edges

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
