Repairing versus replacing in Furnace

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. 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. 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.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Furnace: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Furnace?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Furnace. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Common problems we fix in Furnace

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Common reasons people in Furnace contact us include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
