Linby: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Linby?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NG15 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Linby

For anyone letting property in or around Linby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Linby. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Linby

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
