Your questions about shower tray repair in Marston on Dove

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What affects the price in Marston on Dove

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Marston on Dove

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Marston on Dove

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
