What affects the price in Lea

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lea. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Shower tray repair at your home in Lea

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include scratches in the surface and chips on the edges, in cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Lea, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

FAQs for Lea

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Lea

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A damaged area around the waste

How to compare quotes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
