Questions from Sighthill

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Glasgow.

Are there extra charges for Sighthill?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sighthill. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

What we’re called out for in Sighthill

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Sighthill clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before booking

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
