A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Matchborough

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Matchborough. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Matchborough: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Matchborough and the rest of Worcestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Worcestershire.

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Matchborough

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Matchborough as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we’re called out for in Matchborough

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
