Common questions in Wheatley

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wheatley

If you manage property in Wheatley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Get a quote

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wheatley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
