How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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 day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Kinmundy

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 typically the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Kinmundy: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you come to Kinmundy?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kinmundy from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?

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

How long before I can shower?

Generally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Kinmundy?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
