Shower tray repair at your home in Kilmaluag

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and cracks running from the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Kilmaluag. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kilmaluag. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Wait the full curing time before you shower. 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. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
