Shower tray repair near Joppa

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Shower tray repair at your home in Joppa

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and edge chips from dropped bottles, across ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Ayrshire.

What affects the price in Joppa

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Joppa. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Common questions in Joppa

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
