Ponteland questions

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Ponteland included. Travel is included in the price.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we are called out for in Ponteland

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A damaged area around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Ponteland, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Get a quote

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