Shower tray repair for Stow Longa homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Shower tray repair in Stow Longa, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can typically put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stow Longa and across Cambridgeshire.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stow Longa. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What we’re called out for in Stow Longa

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Questions from Stow Longa

Does someone need to be in?

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

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from photos?

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

How do I book?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stow Longa

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stow Longa use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PE28 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
