Shower tray repair for Yelverton homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

About our shower tray repair in Yelverton

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish. Our technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Yelverton questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Yelverton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Yelverton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Yelverton. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic

Landlord and trade work in Yelverton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our prices page.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
