Shower tray repair in Great Wratting

About our shower tray repair in Great Wratting

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and movement when you stand on it, in ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Great Wratting, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Great Wratting, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repair or replace in Great Wratting?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common questions in Great Wratting

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
