Shower tray repair near Aboyne

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Do you come to Aboyne?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aboyne and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a guarantee?

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Aboyne?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your AB34 postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Repair or replace: which is better?

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Aboyne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
