Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Ashington End

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches, across cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Ashington End questions

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will you leave a mess?

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

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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 entire 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, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Ashington End, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Ashington End. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Ashington End and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Ashington End

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
