Wivelsfield questions

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Wivelsfield. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

For a price in Wivelsfield, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we are called out for in Wivelsfield

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wivelsfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
