Work for landlords and builders

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

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

When to call us in Davistown

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Davistown: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Davistown?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Davistown. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Davistown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
