About our shower tray repair in Catterline

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and chips or cracks by the plughole, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Catterline get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Catterline

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How long before I can shower?

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repair or replace in Catterline?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Catterline. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Common problems we fix in Catterline

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
