Shower tray repair near Clachan

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Shower tray repair at your home in Clachan

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common problems we fix in Clachan

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PA29 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
