Shower tray repair in Duckington

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SY14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Shower tray repair in Duckington, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Duckington, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Duckington

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Duckington

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our pricing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Duckington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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