What affects the price in Snape Watering

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Snape Watering

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan

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, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Snape Watering

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Questions from Snape Watering

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can landlords book you?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Snape Watering included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.
