How we handle shower tray repair in Okeford Fitzpaine

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and cracks running from the waste.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Okeford Fitzpaine

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Questions from Okeford Fitzpaine

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Okeford Fitzpaine?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Okeford Fitzpaine and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What we’re called out for in Okeford Fitzpaine

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking
