Shower tray repair in Braehead

About our shower tray repair in Braehead

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and edge chips from dropped bottles.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Braehead

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Braehead?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Repairing versus replacing in Braehead

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Braehead customers choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Braehead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Braehead and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Braehead

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
