Ivinghoe Aston: your questions answered

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Ivinghoe Aston included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LU7 postcode.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Shower tray repair in Ivinghoe Aston without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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 trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Ivinghoe Aston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Pricing is simple: 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 quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ivinghoe Aston?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
