Shower tray repair for Clopton homes

Shower tray repair in Clopton without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and a cracked shower tray, on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Clopton. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Clopton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clopton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

What happens on the day

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. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace in Clopton?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Read our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

Clopton questions

Are there extra charges for Clopton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Clopton

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day
