Need shower tray repair in Dingestow?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

When to call us in Dingestow

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Every job is a little different, 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Dingestow get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What do you need from me?

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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