Need shower tray repair in Borden?

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Shower tray repair in Borden without replacing anything

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a dull, stained or worn surface.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Borden get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Read our pricing.

What we’re called out for in Borden

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Borden: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
