Shower tray repair in Melbourne

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Shower tray repair at your home in Melbourne

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips on the edges, we can usually put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Melbourne and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Melbourne

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why Melbourne clients choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our pricing.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Melbourne as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Melbourne

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Melbourne. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Melbourne questions

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you work in Melbourne?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Melbourne from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
