Shower tray repair in Sandhurst Cross

What affects the price in Sandhurst Cross

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Sandhurst Cross. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 without visiting.

About our shower tray repair in Sandhurst Cross

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We are frequently asked to fix movement when you stand on it and staining and dullness across the tray, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sandhurst Cross and across Kent.

FAQs for Sandhurst Cross

Do you come to Sandhurst Cross?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Sandhurst Cross?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Repair or replace in Sandhurst Cross?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Do you need shower tray repair in Sandhurst Cross?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to look after the repair

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

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

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