About our shower tray repair in Fort Augustus

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and damage around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Fort Augustus?

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Landlord and trade work in Fort Augustus

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fort Augustus use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Fort Augustus questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PH32 postcode.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Fort Augustus get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
