Shower tray repair in Gorgie

About our shower tray repair in Gorgie

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and a damaged area around the waste.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Stone resin

Your questions about shower tray repair in Gorgie

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
