Questions from Crawford

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Crawford. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work in Crawford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Crawford and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Repair or replace in Crawford?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we are called out for in Crawford

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A crack across the base

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crawford

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Crawford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
