Shower tray repair near Braepark

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Braepark

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

What do you need from me?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • 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 repair

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
