Shower tray repair for Auchenblae homes

About our shower tray repair in Auchenblae

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. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked shower tray and a dull, stained or worn surface.

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s 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 quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Auchenblae questions

Are there extra charges for Auchenblae?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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