How we handle shower tray repair in Lochgoilhead

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lochgoilhead. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lochgoilhead

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

When can you do it?

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
