Shower tray repair for Kingennie homes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

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

About our shower tray repair in Kingennie

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic alike.

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Kingennie questions

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

When to call us in Kingennie

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to look after the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
