When to call us in Boundary

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Common reasons people in Boundary contact us include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that flexes
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Common questions in Boundary

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the next day.

Do you work in Boundary?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Boundary and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DE11 postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Boundary. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
