What we are called out for in Balloch

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Balloch. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

Balloch questions

Do you redo the sealant?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you work in Balloch?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Balloch. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover the whole of Highland?

Across the UK, so Balloch is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Balloch use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Balloch. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

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

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Balloch

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
