About our shower tray repair in Dalby

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dalby as everywhere else we work.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Dalby

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims

Common questions in Dalby

Do you cover Dalby?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dalby. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  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. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Most clients in Dalby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
