Your questions about shower tray repair in Birdlip

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Birdlip, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Read our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Birdlip. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Birdlip, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common problems we fix in Birdlip

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again
