Shower tray repair in Barrhead

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Shower tray repair in Barrhead, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a damaged area around the waste.

Around Barrhead, trays are mostly in en suites and family bathrooms. A damaged tray doesn’t have to be replaced, as long as it’s firmly supported.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days. For a home in Barrhead, we just need access to the room and somewhere to park. One visit is normally enough.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Barrhead

I let a flat near Barrhead station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes. We repair shower trays between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and we can quote for several properties together.

Can you fix shower trays at a school or business in Barrhead?

Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Around Barrhead, a new shower tray rarely matches what’s around it, while a repair keeps everything as it is.

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
