Book shower tray repair in Kinghorn

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Repair or replace in Kinghorn?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlord and trade work in Kinghorn

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Kinghorn

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Kinghorn questions

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Fife. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Kinghorn?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kinghorn and the rest of Fife. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KY3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
