Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair in Thursden without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and edge chips from dropped bottles.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need shower tray repair in Thursden?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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.

Common questions in Thursden

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take 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. 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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

What affects the price in Thursden

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
