DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Lydlinch questions
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Lydlinch?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT10 postcode.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lydlinch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lydlinch, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What we’re called out for in Lydlinch
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A tray that flexes
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your pictures

- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.

- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

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