Kitts End questions

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

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. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairing versus replacing in Kitts End

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Kitts End get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
