Shower tray repair in South Alloa, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from South Alloa

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What areas do you cover?

All of Stirling, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
