Old Felixstowe questions

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Old Felixstowe?

We do. We send a technician to Old Felixstowe for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When can you do it?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

About our shower tray repair in Old Felixstowe

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and scratches in the surface, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When to call us in Old Felixstowe

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chipped corners or rims

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace in Old Felixstowe?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Old Felixstowe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
