Need shower tray repair in Temple Bar?

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Shower tray repair in Temple Bar without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, across enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.

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

What we’re called out for in Temple Bar

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

FAQs for Temple Bar

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you work in Temple Bar?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Temple Bar for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Temple Bar

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
