Shower tray repair in Dalscote, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. If you are dealing with scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Honest limits

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Dalscote: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do I have to be there?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Are there extra charges for Dalscote?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalscote

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
