How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Wimboldsley

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work in Wimboldsley?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wimboldsley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

For landlords and businesses

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

If you manage property in Wimboldsley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

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:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
