How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we’re called out for in Water End

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Water End: your questions answered

Do you come to Water End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Water End and the rest of Hampshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Water End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What a repair cannot fix

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
