Need shower tray repair in Worgret?

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Worgret. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

If you’re in Worgret and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common questions in Worgret

Do you come to Worgret?

We do. We send a technician to Worgret for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Worgret is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price
