Trusted shower tray repair in Sedlescombe

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Sedlescombe

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you don’t 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, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use. Somewhere as small as Sedlescombe, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  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, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Sedlescombe

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Older homes around Sedlescombe may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Sedlescombe?

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting

Facilities teams at buildings such as Sedlescombe CofE Primary School can book us for changing-room showers too.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
