The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wortwell. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Most customers in Wortwell get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wortwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wortwell

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we’re called out for in Wortwell

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
