Common questions in Stone

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you cover Stone?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Stone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How we handle shower tray repair in Stone

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and a tray that flexes.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stone. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Stone, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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.

When to call us in Stone

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Stone contact us are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
