Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Barton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

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-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Barton

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray

What your quote should include

Common questions in Barton

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
