Dormans Park questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Shower tray repair in Dormans Park without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Dormans Park and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Dormans Park

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our pricing.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dormans Park

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dormans Park as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
