North End: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including North End. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North End

For anyone letting property in or around North End, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
