Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 generally the cheaper route.

Earley: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Earley?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Wokingham. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Earley?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG6 postcode.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

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

What affects the price in Earley

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Earley?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. 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.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Most customers in Earley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
