Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. For a rural home like those around Wattisham Stone, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our Prices page.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use. In a village or hamlet like Wattisham Stone, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When to call us in Wattisham Stone

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Before booking anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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