Trusted shower tray repair in Alfriston

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it. Somewhere like Alfriston needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Shower tray repair in Alfriston, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chipped corners or rims, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Homes around Alfriston often have showers added to older buildings, and we always check the tray’s support first.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Alfriston questions

Can you repair shower trays in a rental near Berwick (Sussex) station?

Of course: photos and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Alfriston?

Yes, and we’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. Tell us about access and timings for the building.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Alfriston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Alfriston and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Do you need shower tray repair in Alfriston?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A damaged area around the waste

Landlords with property near Berwick (Sussex) station (about 2.2 miles north) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alfriston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
