How we handle shower tray repair in Howe

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and chips or cracks by the plughole.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Howe: your questions answered

Do you work in Howe?

We do. We send a technician to Howe for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Howe?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Howe

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
