Holmbush: your questions answered

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Signs you need shower tray repair in Holmbush

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
