About our shower tray repair in Hurn

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are staining and dullness across the tray and a cracked shower tray.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Hurn questions

Do you come to Hurn?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hurn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you manage property in Hurn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hurn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
