About our shower tray repair in West Ringstead

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in West Ringstead and across Dorset.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about shower tray repair in West Ringstead

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for West Ringstead?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We cover the whole UK, including West Ringstead and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you cover West Ringstead?

We do. We send a technician to West Ringstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to West Ringstead. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
