Common questions in Upton

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you need shower tray repair in Upton?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Upton

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
