Trusted shower tray repair in Burwash Weald

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Shower tray repair at your home in Burwash Weald

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in Burwash Weald

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Common questions in Burwash Weald

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

When to call us in Burwash Weald

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Common reasons people in Burwash Weald contact us are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
