What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Eaton questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Eaton?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Eaton

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How to care for the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
