Shower tray repair for Eastergate homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eastergate

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How we handle shower tray repair in Eastergate

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, stone resin and cast iron.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Eastergate

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Eastergate. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Eastergate

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

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.

Questions from Eastergate

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Eastergate?

We do. We send a technician to Eastergate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We ensure the tray does not 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 reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Eastergate

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We don’t 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.
