About our shower tray repair in Aberlemno

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that flexes, across cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Aberlemno and across Angus.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common problems we fix in Aberlemno

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Aberlemno

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin

Repair or replace in Aberlemno?

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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Aberlemno

  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Aberlemno questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Angus.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you quote from photos?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
