Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Auchtertool

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Auchtertool

For anyone letting property in or around Auchtertool, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Auchtertool

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Auchtertool

Will you leave a mess?

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

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KY2 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
