Shower tray repair for Blue Town homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Blue Town

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s a crack across the base and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in Blue Town

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ME12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  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 generally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Should you replace it?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Blue Town: your questions answered

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Blue Town?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Landlord and trade work in Blue Town

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blue Town use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Blue Town

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
