Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common questions in Willington

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

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

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Willington.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Willington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Honest limits

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
