Shower Tray Repair in County Durham

Our shower tray repair service in County Durham

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include movement when you stand on it and a dull, stained or worn surface, across enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

1. We check the tray for movement first.
2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

• Avoid strong descalers and bleach
• Get a moving tray checked
• Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
• Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

• The material and finish
• How hard the colour is to match
• Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
• Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

• Where you are, by postcode
• A close-up of the damage, in focus
• Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
• Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
