Shower tray repair for Innellan homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Innellan

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and damage around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Innellan and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we are called out for in Innellan

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Your questions about shower tray repair in Innellan

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Innellan?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you come to Innellan?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Innellan. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Innellan, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Innellan

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
