Yelland questions

Does someone need to be in?

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

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX31 postcode.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?

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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

Signs you need shower tray repair in Yelland

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Yelland

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yelland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
