Shower tray repair in Fairstead without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and a crack across the base.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about shower tray repair in Fairstead

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you work in Fairstead?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Fairstead. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Fairstead

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. 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. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
