Questions from Eardisland

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it messy?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover the whole of Herefordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Herefordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Shower tray repair at your home in Eardisland

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Eardisland and across Herefordshire.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Eardisland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
