Shower tray repair in Dalry

Shower tray repair at your home in Dalry

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Do you need shower tray repair in Dalry?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Dalry?

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

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Dalry customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
