FAQs for Blackfriars
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SE1 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What affects the price in Blackfriars
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Blackfriars, 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Landlord and trade work in Blackfriars
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackfriars as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we’re called out for in Blackfriars
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
