When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Shower tray repair in Billingborough, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Billingborough

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Billingborough?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Billingborough questions

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Billingborough and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

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.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Billingborough. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
