Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Greenside

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cumbria.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?

All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Greenside. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Greenside

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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