Trusted shower tray repair in Scalloway

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Scalloway

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Scalloway

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you come to Scalloway?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Scalloway from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Repair or replace in Scalloway?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Scalloway, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the 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 day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
