About our shower tray repair in Hougham

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about scuffs and light scratches and chips on the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Do you need shower tray repair in Hougham?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Hougham questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

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.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hougham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
