How we handle shower tray repair in Ochiltree

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace in Ochiltree?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • One price list for the whole UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ochiltree. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

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

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Ochiltree and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we work on in Ochiltree

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive 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 damage the floor below.
