About our shower tray repair in West Bilney

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and a tray that flexes, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in West Bilney

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including West Bilney and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How much does shower tray repair cost in West Bilney?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we’re called out for in West Bilney

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  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. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

For a price in West Bilney, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
