Landlord and trade work in Boxgrove

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

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’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Boxgrove

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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.

Can landlords book you?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Boxgrove. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
