Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Shipston-on-Stour

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Shipston-on-Stour

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shipston-on-Stour. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
