How we handle shower tray repair in Earsdon

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. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What affects the price in Earsdon

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.

  1. We ensure 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. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

What we work on

  • Stone resin

Earsdon questions

What happens next?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Are there extra charges for Earsdon?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to Earsdon?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Earsdon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Earsdon use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
