FAQs for Etteridge

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you come to Etteridge?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

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.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Etteridge

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our full price list.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
