Landlord and trade work in Murieston

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Murieston

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Murieston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Murieston. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Murieston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include
