Shower tray repair in Hoxton

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

About our shower tray repair in Hoxton

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, 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.

Landlord and trade work in Hoxton

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting 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 you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Hoxton: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hoxton

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crack across the base
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
