DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
