Whilton questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

About our shower tray repair in Whilton

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and chipped corners or rims, across enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common problems we fix in Whilton

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Whilton

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Whilton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
