Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Wraxall

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chipped corners or rims

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Common questions in Wraxall

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
