Shower tray repair in Westhall

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Shower tray repair in Westhall, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Landlord and trade work in Westhall

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

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Westhall

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you work in Westhall?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westhall. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
