Shower tray repair for Ardtun homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Ardtun

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Common questions in Ardtun

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Ardtun

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

Common problems we fix in Ardtun

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ardtun. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
