What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Murdishaw. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Murdishaw and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Murdishaw questions
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
When to call us in Murdishaw
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. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
