Shower tray repair in Gresham

Shower tray repair at your home in Gresham

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Our technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and cracks running from the waste.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gresham as everywhere else we work.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Gresham

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

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 do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Gresham, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Gresham

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
