Shower tray repair in Bradwell

Shower tray repair in Bradwell, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and movement when you stand on it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Questions from Bradwell

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Bradwell?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Bradwell and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

When can you do it?

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Bradwell

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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 quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
