Shower tray repair in Smoo

Shower tray repair in Smoo without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairing versus replacing in Smoo

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
