Shower tray repair in Loxley Green

What affects the price in Loxley Green

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Shower tray repair in Loxley Green, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit, across cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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 typically cheaper.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Loxley Green: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Are there extra charges for Loxley Green?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Landlord and trade work in Loxley Green

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Loxley Green use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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