Shower tray repair at your home in Grove Hill

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and scratches in the surface, we can generally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business

When to call us in Grove Hill

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through 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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Grove Hill questions

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Grove Hill included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Grove Hill

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
