Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

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

Landlord and trade work in Culbokie

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you need shower tray repair in Culbokie?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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