Shower tray repair for Leagrave homes

Leagrave questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you cover Leagrave?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

About our shower tray repair in Leagrave

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole, in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Luton.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Leagrave

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Leagrave

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Cracks running from the waste

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.
