Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Freshford

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after 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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
