Need shower tray repair in Kirkton of Auchterhouse?

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kirkton of Auchterhouse

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are there extra charges for Kirkton of Auchterhouse?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does it take to cure?

Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
