Trusted shower tray repair in Sgalpaigh

Shower tray repair in Sgalpaigh, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Sgalpaigh: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Are there extra charges for Sgalpaigh?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Na h-Eileanan Siar. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

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

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Sgalpaigh. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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