Swineshead: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you come to Swineshead?

We do. Technicians travel to Swineshead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Swineshead?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Swineshead

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
