How we handle shower tray repair in Aywick

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and people most often call us about a tray that flexes and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Aywick?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about shower tray repair in Aywick

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you work in Aywick?

We do. Technicians travel to Aywick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What affects the price in Aywick

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aywick. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Aywick

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
