Shower tray repair for North Scarle homes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

North Scarle questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How long before I can shower?

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

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in North Scarle

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for North Scarle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
