Shower tray repair at your home in North Tolsta

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting, in cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in North Tolsta

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

North Tolsta questions

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you cover the whole of Na h-Eileanan Siar?

All of Na h-Eileanan Siar, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for North Tolsta. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When a repair is not the answer

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
