Need shower tray repair in Knockentiber?

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Shower tray repair in Knockentiber, done in place

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We are frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it, in enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Knockentiber questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you cover the whole of East Ayrshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Knockentiber and the rest of East Ayrshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

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

Repairing versus replacing in Knockentiber

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Knockentiber

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Knockentiber

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Knockentiber. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KA2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
