Shower tray repair in Satmar, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips on the edges and a dull, stained or worn surface.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Satmar

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we’re called out for in Satmar

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Satmar

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Satmar. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

If you’re in Satmar and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
