Repair or replace in Trentishoe?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Common problems we fix in Trentishoe

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

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.

Acrylic

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

What affects the price in Trentishoe

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trentishoe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Trentishoe

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
