How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairing versus replacing in Higher Chisworth

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place

FAQs for Higher Chisworth

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Landlord and trade work in Higher Chisworth

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higher Chisworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What we’re called out for in Higher Chisworth

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Common reasons people in Higher Chisworth contact us are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
