Shower tray repair for Billingford homes

Shower tray repair in Billingford without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in Billingford

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish

Questions from Billingford

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you work in Billingford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Billingford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What affects the price in Billingford

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

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.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  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 normally be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
