Ingleby questions

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ingleby?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Ingleby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairing versus replacing in Ingleby

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ingleby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray

  • A tray that moves underfoot

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

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 quote.
