Shower tray repair in Ardeer

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Ayrshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Shower tray repair in Ardeer without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Ardeer

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to Ardeer?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ardeer from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the whole of North Ayrshire?

The whole UK, including all of North Ayrshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are there extra charges for Ardeer?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your KA20 postcode.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Ardeer

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ardeer. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA20 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
