Need shower tray repair in West Buckland?

Do you need shower tray repair in West Buckland?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Buckland

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in West Buckland

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Will the price change on the day?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there any odour?

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

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
