We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Langdon as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common questions in East Langdon

Do you work in East Langdon?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Langdon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we’re called out for in East Langdon

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
