Landlords, agents and businesses in Tile Cross

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tile Cross use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Shower tray repair in Tile Cross without replacing anything

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We are often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste, in ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Tile Cross

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tile Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Tile Cross clients choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What affects the price in Tile Cross

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Tile Cross, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
