Common questions in Hutton-le-Hole

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I keep using 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?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Shower tray repair in Hutton-le-Hole without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can typically put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Hutton-le-Hole

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

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hutton-le-Hole. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Hutton-le-Hole, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hutton-le-Hole

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to care for the finish

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
