When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Starbotton

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and scuffs and light scratches, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Starbotton

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Starbotton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Starbotton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Are there extra charges for Starbotton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Starbotton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Starbotton

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Starbotton

For anyone letting property in or around Starbotton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
