Shower tray repair near Yate Rocks

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

About our shower tray repair in Yate Rocks

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. We work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a damaged area around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Yate Rocks

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Yate Rocks

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.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

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

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
