How we handle shower tray repair in Auldhouse

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Auldhouse

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

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 over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Auldhouse

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
