Shower tray repair in Dunburgh without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and a tray that flexes.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Dunburgh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
