FAQs for Bothwell

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?

All of South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G71 postcode.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Shower tray repair in Bothwell, 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’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and a damaged area around the waste, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Bothwell

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bothwell. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bothwell

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.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repairing versus replacing in Bothwell

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
