  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Bulwick clients choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our full price list.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Bulwick get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Common questions in Bulwick

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Bulwick included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  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. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
