Trusted shower tray repair in North End

What affects the price in North End

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Shower tray repair in North End, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Signs you need shower tray repair in North End

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in North End

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

North End: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
