About our shower tray repair in Brickendon

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a crack across the base and movement when you stand on it.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repair or replace in Brickendon?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Brickendon

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Brickendon

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Brickendon contact us are:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Brickendon, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
