What we are called out for in Harrietsham

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, 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.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Questions from Harrietsham

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Landlord and trade work in Harrietsham

What affects the price in Harrietsham

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
