How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Shower tray repair in Burnside, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Burnside

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Burnside, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Burnside

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you work in Burnside?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burnside. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
