What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Billericay

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Questions from Billericay

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Billericay?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When to call us in Billericay

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What affects the price in Billericay

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
