Trusted shower tray repair in Moniaive

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Shower tray repair in Moniaive without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic alike.

Homes around Moniaive frequently have showers added to older buildings, and we always check the tray’s support first.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Moniaive. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Moniaive, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Moniaive

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Cademuir International School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

FAQs for Moniaive

Can you fix shower trays at a school or business in Moniaive?

Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.

Do you come out to small places like Moniaive?

Yes, we do: Moniaive is covered like any town. Tell us if access is tricky.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go. Somewhere as small as Moniaive, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Replacement in Moniaive means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

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.
