Upper Inglesham: your questions answered

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Upper Inglesham?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Upper Inglesham and the rest of Swindon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

When to call us in Upper Inglesham

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Inglesham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Upper Inglesham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
