Shower tray repair at your home in Macmerry

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and chips caused during fitting, we can help, on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Lothian.

What affects the price in Macmerry

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Macmerry questions

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Macmerry?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can landlords book you?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Macmerry?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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

What we’re called out for in Macmerry

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH33 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
