How we handle shower tray repair in Dunton

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and people most often call us about cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we are called out for in Dunton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Dunton?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Dunton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Central Bedfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
