DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we handle shower tray repair in Bradford Abbas

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Repairing versus replacing in Bradford Abbas

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Bradford Abbas: your questions answered

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Bradford Abbas?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bradford Abbas and the rest of Dorset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Bradford Abbas?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bradford Abbas. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bradford Abbas. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DT9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we are called out for in Bradford Abbas

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
