Sutton: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you come to Sutton?

We do. We send a technician to Sutton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Sutton

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
