Shower tray repair in Sibsey without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

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.

Common problems we fix in Sibsey

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Sibsey

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Sibsey?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
