Birstwith questions

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Do you come to Birstwith?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Birstwith. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Birstwith. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Birstwith

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
