Shower tray repair for Kinross homes

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kinross. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Kinross get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we’re called out for in Kinross

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Kinross

  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Work for landlords and builders

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

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. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kinross

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Kinross?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
