Landlords, agents and businesses in Newarthill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ML1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Newarthill

Are there extra charges for Newarthill?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you work in Newarthill?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do I need to be at home?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common problems we fix in Newarthill

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
