Shower tray repair in Powfoot

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Powfoot

Do you cover the whole of Dumfries and Galloway?

Across the UK, so Powfoot is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Powfoot?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dumfries and Galloway.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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