How we handle shower tray repair in Queen Adelaide

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and scuffs and light scratches.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Queen Adelaide as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

When to call us in Queen Adelaide

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Queen Adelaide

Do you come to Queen Adelaide?

We do. Technicians travel to Queen Adelaide from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long before I can shower?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

Repair or replace in Queen Adelaide?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
