Landlord and trade work in Pather

For anyone letting property in or around Pather, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

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.

When to call us in Pather

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pather. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we work on in Pather

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

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  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. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Pather: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Which areas do you work in?

All of North Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pather.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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