Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in High Flatts

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for High Flatts. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to High Flatts. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

Most customers in High Flatts get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Do you cover the whole of Kirklees?

All of Kirklees, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
