How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kingsbury Episcopi. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in Kingsbury Episcopi

If you manage property in Kingsbury Episcopi, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kingsbury Episcopi

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Kingsbury Episcopi?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kingsbury Episcopi for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
