Shower tray repair near Summerhill

Shower tray repair in Summerhill without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and a damaged area around the waste, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Summerhill. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Summerhill, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Summerhill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What we are called out for in Summerhill

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A crack across the base
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Summerhill questions

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What areas do you cover?

All of Aberdeen, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
