Shower tray repair near Crossapol

Shower tray repair in Crossapol without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix chips on the edges and cracks running from the waste, across stone resin, ceramic and cast iron.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Crossapol and across Argyll and Bute.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

When to call us in Crossapol

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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

Common questions in Crossapol

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Crossapol?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Crossapol. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Crossapol

Repairing versus replacing in Crossapol

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Crossapol customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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