How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

FAQs for Wrentham

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Wrentham?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wrentham

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When to call us in Wrentham

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
