Shower tray repair in Dailly

Shower tray repair in Dailly without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We’re often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole, across cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Dailly

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
