How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you are in Handley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Handley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Handley

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

What we are called out for in Handley

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Handley

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
