Your questions about shower tray repair in Hargate

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do you come to Hargate?

We do. We send a technician to Hargate for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What we’re called out for in Hargate

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site
