Repairing versus replacing in Englesea-brook

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. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Englesea-brook. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Englesea-brook

Do you cover Englesea-brook?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Landlord and trade work in Englesea-brook

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Englesea-brook use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
