Common questions in Wilsford

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you work in Wilsford?

We do. We send a technician to Wilsford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does it take to cure?

Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

We work UK-wide, so Wilsford is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

About our shower tray repair in Wilsford

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re frequently asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that flexes, in enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wilsford

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilsford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wilsford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
