Shower tray repair for Westfield homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Westfield

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are movement when you stand on it and chips caused during fitting.

Rural addresses like Westfield just need a little planning, and we will plan the visit around it.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Westfield

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Rented homes near Doleham station (about 1.6 miles north-east) change hands frequently, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Westfield

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Westfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairing versus replacing in Westfield

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Older homes around Westfield may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our Prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.
