What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Callow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Callow as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we’re called out for in Callow

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

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 is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Callow: your questions answered

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there any odour?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in Callow?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Callow and the rest of Herefordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
