Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Markethill

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Markethill questions

Do you cover the whole of Perth and Kinross?

We work UK-wide, so Markethill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
