Shower tray repair in West Hurn, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around West Hurn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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 next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about shower tray repair in West Hurn

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

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

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Hurn.

Do you work in West Hurn?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Hurn and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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 pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
