How to compare quotes

Shower tray repair at your home in Blanchland

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a crack across the base and a damaged area around the waste.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Blanchland. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Blanchland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blanchland

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Blanchland?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
