Shower tray repair in Kilton, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

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.

Advice

What we are called out for in Kilton

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Kilton?

Kilton questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Do you come to Kilton?

We do. Technicians travel to Kilton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What areas do you cover?

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What affects the price in Kilton

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
