Shower tray repair at your home in Blackness
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and chips on the edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Blackness. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For anyone letting property in or around Blackness, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
