Book shower tray repair in Hawkhead

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair in Hawkhead without replacing anything

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Do you need shower tray repair in Hawkhead?

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
