Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Yorkley Slade, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Do you need shower tray repair in Yorkley Slade?

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Common reasons people in Yorkley Slade contact us include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Yorkley Slade

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Common questions in Yorkley Slade

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do you come to Yorkley Slade?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Yorkley Slade and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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