Common questions in Turnchapel
Are there extra charges for Turnchapel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Do you cover Turnchapel?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Turnchapel for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What else we do in Turnchapel
Landlords, agents and businesses in Turnchapel
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Turnchapel. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Turnchapel get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Turnchapel
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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.
