Shower tray repair for Burray Village homes

Burray Village: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you come to Burray Village?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Burray Village. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Burray Village

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Do you need shower tray repair in Burray Village?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chipped corners or rims

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
