Common questions in Laurencekirk

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are there extra charges for Laurencekirk?

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

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Laurencekirk

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Laurencekirk. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Laurencekirk use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
