DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Amersham

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
