About our shower tray repair in Cairnie

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and cracks running from the waste.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Cairnie

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

FAQs for Cairnie

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Cairnie?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Are there extra charges for Cairnie?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should you replace it?

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
