Shower tray repair for Bridge of Allan homes

When to call us in Bridge of Allan

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

About our shower tray repair in Bridge of Allan

You do not 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 work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from a refit or building work and movement when you stand on it.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Stirling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our full price list.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Bridge of Allan questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most clients in Bridge of Allan get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
