Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Shower tray repair at your home in Craigiebank

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Craigiebank. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Craigiebank, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Craigiebank: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Craigiebank?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Craigiebank. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Craigiebank?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace in Craigiebank?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
