Kinver: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Kinver?

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kinver

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kinver, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kinver. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
