Shower tray repair in Ecclefechan, done in place

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
