Book shower tray repair in Horley

Landlord and trade work in Horley

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Shower tray repair in Horley, done in place

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

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 you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Horley questions

Do you cover Horley?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Horley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repairing versus replacing in Horley

The tray is typically 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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Horley clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Horley

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
