Shower tray repair in Roxburgh, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Roxburgh as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Roxburgh questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work in Roxburgh?

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

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

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Roxburgh

If you manage property in Roxburgh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Common problems we fix in Roxburgh

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray
