Shower tray repair in Ealand

Shower tray repair in Ealand, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and damage around the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

FAQs for Ealand

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ealand?

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

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t 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 we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ealand. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
