Book shower tray repair in Ballygown

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Shower tray repair in Ballygown without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and chipped corners or rims.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Ballygown

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work in Ballygown?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ballygown and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ballygown

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ballygown?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
