Shower tray repair for Arabella homes

Shower tray repair in Arabella without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

Common questions in Arabella

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Arabella?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we are called out for in Arabella

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin

  • Cast iron

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Arabella. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
