About our shower tray repair in Berden

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and staining and dullness across the tray, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Berden

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What we are called out for in Berden

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Berden questions

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you come to Berden?

We do. We send a technician to Berden for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Berden. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
