Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common questions in Dunston

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you come to Dunston?

How much does shower tray repair cost in Dunston?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Dunston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dunston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
