Boughton under Blean: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Boughton under Blean

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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

What affects the price in Boughton under Blean

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Boughton under Blean. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
