Shower tray repair in Burntisland

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We ensure 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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we handle shower tray repair in Burntisland

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with scratches in the surface and chips on the edges, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Burntisland

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Burntisland. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

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

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Burntisland: your questions answered

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
