About our shower tray repair in Ayton

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  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 entire tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Repairing versus replacing in Ayton

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ayton?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Questions from Ayton

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Ayton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ayton. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Ayton

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
