Shower tray repair for Dalton homes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Dalton

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Dalton questions

Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Dalton included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dalton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Dalton

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Common problems we fix in Dalton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to look after the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
