Shower tray repair near Easter Kinkell

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How we handle shower tray repair in Easter Kinkell

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and staining and dullness across the tray, on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

Do you need shower tray repair in Easter Kinkell?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base

FAQs for Easter Kinkell

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Easter Kinkell

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
