Landlords, agents and businesses in Harlow Wood

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Harlow Wood, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Shower tray repair at your home in Harlow Wood

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it, across cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes 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. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Harlow Wood

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, 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 the repair is polished to match the shine.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Harlow Wood

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
