Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Winchestown

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Winchestown.

When can you do it?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Winchestown?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Winchestown

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
