DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we’re called out for in Haswell Plough

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

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. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

Common questions in Haswell Plough

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What affects the price in Haswell Plough

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Haswell Plough get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

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