For anyone letting property in or around Great Shefford, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Shower tray repair at your home in Great Shefford

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and chips caused during fitting, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Check the seal every few months

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common questions in Great Shefford

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do the materials smell?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you work in Great Shefford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Shefford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Shefford. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Great Shefford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
