FAQs for Milton Damerel

Are there extra charges for Milton Damerel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Milton Damerel

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We make sure the tray does not 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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

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.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Milton Damerel. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
