Shower tray repair at your home in Ulting

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and chips caused during fitting, we can help, on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

FAQs for Ulting

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Ulting and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

When to call us in Ulting

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 generally the cheaper route.
