Need shower tray repair in Spion Kop?

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Spion Kop

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, in acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Spion Kop

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spion Kop as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Spion Kop?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • 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.

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. 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, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Spion Kop. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
