What we’re called out for in Streatham Hill

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

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-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Streatham Hill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Streatham Hill questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
