Rothwell: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you come to Rothwell?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rothwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Rothwell

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Different materials, different repairs

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 rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

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 do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
