How we handle shower tray repair in Guy's Marsh

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Guy's Marsh and across Dorset.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlord and trade work in Guy's Marsh

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Guy's Marsh

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
