Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. 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 a day for a full resurface.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What affects the price in Tilney cum Islington

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

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

Questions from Tilney cum Islington

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Tilney cum Islington included. There is no extra charge for travel.

When to call us in Tilney cum Islington

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
