Signs you need shower tray repair in Knotting Green

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A crack across the base

Facilities teams at buildings such as Sharnbrook Academy can book us for changing-room showers too.

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering

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. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What affects the price in Knotting Green

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Can landlords book you?

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. In a village or hamlet like Knotting Green, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
