What else we do in Slamannan
When to call us in Slamannan
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A cracked shower tray
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Slamannan, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Falkirk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Slamannan
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
