About our shower tray repair in Rankinston

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and damage around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Rankinston and across South Ayrshire.

What affects the price in Rankinston

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rankinston. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Rankinston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Rankinston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we are called out for in Rankinston

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the 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 following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Rankinston

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our pricing.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
