About our shower tray repair in Gergask
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Gergask
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Gergask and the surrounding area
Gergask is about 31 miles south of Inverness, in Highland. Our technicians come to homes and businesses in Gergask and nearby villages, so there’s no workshop to go to. Gergask is one of 253 places in Highland we cover.
Our visits in PH20 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We also travel to Laggan (1 mile south-east), Etteridge (5 miles east), Dalwhinnie (6 miles south), Newtonmore (7 miles north-east) and Kingussie (10 miles north-east). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so call us to arrange it.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Gergask, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Gergask questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you cover Gergask?
We do. We send a technician to Gergask for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use the extractor fan
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
