Shower tray repair in Partick, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and chips on the edges.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Partick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Partick?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Partick

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Partick

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you come to Partick?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Partick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
