Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Chalfont Common: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Chalfont Common?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Chalfont Common. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Chalfont Common. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Chalfont Common get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

For anyone letting property in or around Chalfont Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we repair

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