FAQs for Washpit

Are there extra charges for Washpit?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How do I book?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Washpit?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

Landlord and trade work in Washpit

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Washpit

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Washpit. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Washpit. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
