About our shower tray repair in Pitcalnie

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Materials we work on in Pitcalnie

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

When to call us in Pitcalnie

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Common reasons people in Pitcalnie contact us are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pitcalnie as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Pitcalnie, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pitcalnie. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Pitcalnie

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Are there extra charges for Pitcalnie?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Pitcalnie?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Pitcalnie from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
