Shower tray repair near Closeburn

Shower tray repair at your home in Closeburn

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are often asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and movement when you stand on it, across stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Common questions in Closeburn

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.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, 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.

Landlord and trade work in Closeburn

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Closeburn

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Closeburn contact us are:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic

Repair or replace in Closeburn?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
