Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How to compare quotes

Your questions about shower tray repair in Longframlington

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

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 pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

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

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
