Westley Bottom questions

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Westley Bottom?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What information do you need?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you work in Westley Bottom?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Westley Bottom for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Westley Bottom

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
