Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Weston

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Common questions in Weston

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Weston is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Landlord and trade work in Weston

If you manage property in Weston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
