Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Do you need shower tray repair in Kilchoan?

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Repair or replace in Kilchoan?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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 book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kilchoan, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

Questions from Kilchoan

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
