How we handle shower tray repair in Hallington

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you are dealing with scratches in the surface and damage around the waste, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • 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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Hallington

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

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 does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
