When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Gedney

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common questions in Gedney

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Gedney?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gedney. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What we’re called out for in Gedney

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gedney

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gedney as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
