About our shower tray repair in Colkirk

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Colkirk and across Norfolk.

What affects the price in Colkirk

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colkirk

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Questions from Colkirk

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long before I can shower?

Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

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

Advice

What we’re called out for in Colkirk

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
