Your questions about shower tray repair in Farfield

Do I have to be there?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Shower tray repair in Farfield without replacing anything

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Typical jobs include chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Farfield?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Take a look at our prices page.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Farfield

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

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.

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

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

For a price in Farfield, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
