Trusted shower tray repair in Hattoncrook

Hattoncrook: your questions answered

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Shower tray repair at your home in Hattoncrook

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hattoncrook and across Aberdeen.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Hattoncrook

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

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

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
