Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Codicote

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

What affects the price in Codicote

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

Questions from Codicote

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Codicote?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

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

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin

Common problems we fix in Codicote

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that flexes

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
