Trusted shower tray repair in Kinneil

Shower tray repair in Kinneil without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches from cleaning or grit.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, 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. There’s no charge for travel to Kinneil. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.

What we are called out for in Kinneil

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Landlord and trade work in Kinneil

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
