Need shower tray repair in Seven Kings?

Shower tray repair in Seven Kings without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We’re frequently asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit, in acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Seven Kings questions

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

We work UK-wide, so Seven Kings is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Seven Kings

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Seven Kings

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we are called out for in Seven Kings

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. 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. 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should you replace it?

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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
