Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair at your home in Mathersgrave

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Landlord and trade work in Mathersgrave

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Mathersgrave: your questions answered

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Mathersgrave?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Mathersgrave

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Mathersgrave, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: 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.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the entire UK
