Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Orchard Leigh

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

FAQs for Orchard Leigh

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Orchard Leigh?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HP5 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover Orchard Leigh?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Orchard Leigh. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Repair or replace in Orchard Leigh?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in Orchard Leigh

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Orchard Leigh

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Orchard Leigh

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Orchard Leigh. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Orchard Leigh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
