Shower tray repair for Dalmonach homes

Shower tray repair in Dalmonach without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and chips caused during fitting, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re 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, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Dalmonach

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Dalmonach included. Travel is included in the price.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your G83 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Dalmonach

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
