Shower tray repair in Dunbeg

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Dunbeg, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Shower tray repair in Dunbeg without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dunbeg as everywhere else we work.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Dunbeg

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

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

Dunbeg: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Dunbeg?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Dunbeg from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
