Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Upper Walthamstow: your questions answered

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Upper Walthamstow.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your E17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Upper Walthamstow, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Upper Walthamstow. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Upper Walthamstow and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
