Shower tray repair near Eastwood

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Shower tray repair in Eastwood without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chipped corners or rims.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Your questions about shower tray repair in Eastwood

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work in Eastwood?

We do. We send a technician to Eastwood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we’re called out for in Eastwood

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

DIY kit or professional repair?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Eastwood. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

If you are in Eastwood and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Eastwood

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
