Questions from The Square

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover the entire of Flintshire?

Across the UK, and that includes The Square. Prices do not change with location.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for The Square. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in The Square

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
