Shower tray repair for Martin homes

Questions from Martin

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Martin. Prices do not change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

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 you need shower tray repair in Martin?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Martin?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Martin

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Martin. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
