DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kirkhill

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Kirkhill questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Kirkhill.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Do you need shower tray repair in Kirkhill?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. 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.
