Repair or replace in Victoria?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start 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. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NP23 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most clients in Victoria get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Victoria

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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 trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Victoria

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Blaenau Gwent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
