Need shower tray repair in Scotland?

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us 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, including clearing up.

  1. We ensure 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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Shower tray repair at your home in Scotland

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and scuffs and light scratches.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Scotland

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Scotland. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Scotland, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Scotland

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
