How we handle shower tray repair in Doonfoot

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a damaged area around the waste, in enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Doonfoot questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Doonfoot included. Travel is included in the price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is my repair covered?

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

Common problems we fix in Doonfoot

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
