Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Allington?

Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Allington. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
