Chessington questions

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repairing versus replacing in Chessington

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What we’re called out for in Chessington

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
