Shower tray repair in Baldock

Baldock: your questions answered

Do you work in Baldock?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Baldock from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

About our shower tray repair in Baldock

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix a cracked shower tray and movement when you stand on it, across cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Baldock

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Baldock get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Baldock, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early

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

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

When to call us in Baldock

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Baldock

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Read our pricing.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
