Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business

Shower tray repair at your home in Arbury

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work, across enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Questions from Arbury

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cambridgeshire.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Arbury and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Arbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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