Shower tray repair near Dowlish Wake

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Shower tray repair in Dowlish Wake without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Dowlish Wake questions

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Dowlish Wake

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. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
