Shower Tray Repair for Darfoulds homes
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Darfoulds and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
About our shower tray repair in Darfoulds
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Darfoulds
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Darfoulds
Do you cover Darfoulds?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Darfoulds from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
