Common questions in East Street

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

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

Common problems we fix in East Street

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
