Millport: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you cover the entire of North Ayrshire?

All of North Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Millport. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Millport. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Millport

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
