Common questions in East Hamlet
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
How much does shower tray repair cost in East Hamlet?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SY8 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Hamlet. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in East Hamlet and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repair or replace in East Hamlet?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Do you need shower tray repair in East Hamlet?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Damage around the waste
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
