Shower tray repair in Blackford, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and a cracked shower tray, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Blackford
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Blackford?

Do you come to Blackford?
We do. We send a technician to Blackford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Advice
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What affects the price in Blackford
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Blackford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Blackford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
