Need shower tray repair in Twyford?

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we handle shower tray repair in Twyford

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we are called out for in Twyford

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Twyford

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Twyford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Twyford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
