Shower tray repair in Ubbeston

About our shower tray repair in Ubbeston

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ubbeston and across Suffolk.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Ubbeston

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Ubbeston included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When to call us in Ubbeston

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Ubbeston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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

  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
