Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Branksome Park. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Branksome Park, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Branksome Park questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Landlord and trade work in Branksome Park

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant 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.

When to call us in Branksome Park

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Branksome Park contact us include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
