How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Blackhills questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Are there extra charges for Blackhills?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover the whole of Moray?

All of Moray, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Blackhills.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common problems we fix in Blackhills

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
