Treswithian questions

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in Treswithian?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TR14 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Treswithian, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Treswithian use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

  • Cast iron

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Treswithian?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
