Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowie as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Cowie

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cowie.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Stirling, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Repair or replace in Cowie?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

When to call us in Cowie

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

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

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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