Stow Park questions

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you quote from photos?

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

About our shower tray repair in Stow Park

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stow Park. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Stow Park?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
