About our shower tray repair in Foxton

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you 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. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Foxton

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Foxton. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DL6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Foxton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Foxton.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long before I can shower?

Generally the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
