What we are called out for in Duddon Common

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Duddon Common. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Duddon Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Duddon Common, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

FAQs for Duddon Common

Do you work in Duddon Common?

We do. Technicians travel to Duddon Common from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
