What affects the price in Dragons Green

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Dragons Green

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Dragons Green and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Dragons Green

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
