The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Jenkins' Green

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Which areas do you work in?

All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Do you come to Jenkins' Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Jenkins' Green and the rest of East Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

What affects the price in Jenkins' Green

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Jenkins' Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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 it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Jenkins' Green

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
