Common problems we fix in East Stratton

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

East Stratton questions

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are there extra charges for East Stratton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs

What affects the price in East Stratton

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for East Stratton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in East Stratton

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 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 normally usable the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
