Shower tray repair in Craigton

Shower tray repair in Craigton, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scuffs and light scratches, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow.

Craigton: your questions answered

Do you work in Craigton?

We do. We send a technician to Craigton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Craigton?

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Craigton

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Craigton

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
