Landlords, agents and businesses in Darlaston

About our shower tray repair in Darlaston

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. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repairing versus replacing in Darlaston

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Darlaston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
