How we handle shower tray repair in Fletton

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. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and chips caused during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Fletton questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Fletton?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 normally the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What we are called out for in Fletton

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What affects the price in Fletton

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
