Shower tray repair in Kimberworth, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can normally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Kimberworth

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kimberworth. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Kimberworth

Is there any odour?

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

Do you work in Kimberworth?

We do. We send a technician to Kimberworth for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Repair or replace in Kimberworth?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Kimberworth, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kimberworth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

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

  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. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

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

What we’re called out for in Kimberworth

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
