About our shower tray repair in Rickarton

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeenshire.

What affects the price in Rickarton

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rickarton

If you manage property in Rickarton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Rickarton

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Rickarton.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When to call us in Rickarton

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
