DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Repair or replace in Seaburn?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Seaburn

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

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.

Do you cover the entire of Sunderland?

All of Sunderland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

When can I use the shower again?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Seaburn?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
