Bridge End: your questions answered

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What do you need from me?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do you work in Bridge End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bridge End and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we are called out for in Bridge End

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Bridge End

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bridge End. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for 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. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
