FAQs for Plasterfield

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

About our shower tray repair in Plasterfield

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Na h-Eileanan Siar.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Plasterfield. The price reflects:

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

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Plasterfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Plasterfield get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  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 following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Plasterfield

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that flexes

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plasterfield use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
