Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Eccleston questions

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eccleston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Eccleston

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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 or gets worse.

What affects the price in Eccleston

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

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

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
