Shower tray repair at your home in Shandon

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and people most often call us about scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Shandon

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shandon

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
