Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 generally cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

FAQs for Ugley Green

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Do you work in Ugley Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ugley Green. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Ugley Green and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What affects the price in Ugley Green

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ugley Green

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CM22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
