Shower tray repair near Wootton Fitzpaine

Shower tray repair in Wootton Fitzpaine, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Materials we work on in Wootton Fitzpaine

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wootton Fitzpaine. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Wootton Fitzpaine get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Do you need shower tray repair in Wootton Fitzpaine?

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips on the edges

Comparing quotes

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
