Shower tray repair in Little Brechin

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we handle shower tray repair in Little Brechin

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and scuffs and light scratches, we can help, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repair or replace in Little Brechin?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Little Brechin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Little Brechin

Common questions in Little Brechin

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Little Brechin

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Brechin as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
