Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Alderney, Poole
Problem with your shower tray in Alderney? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Shower tray repair in Alderney, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and chips on the edges, we can usually put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common questions in Alderney
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Related advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Alderney
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
Should you replace it?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
