Bracon questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Bracon.

Shower tray repair in Bracon without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a crack across the base and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Bracon

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bracon as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Bracon

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What affects the price in Bracon

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Bracon

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
