Shower tray repair in Kensal Green

Shower tray repair in Kensal Green without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and chipped corners or rims, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

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

Common problems we fix in Kensal Green

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Kensal Green

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Landlord and trade work in Kensal Green

If you manage property in Kensal Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kensal Green: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Most clients in Kensal Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Kensal Green. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
