Trusted shower tray repair in Sheepdrove

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Sheepdrove?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Sheepdrove

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can landlords book you?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sheepdrove as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
