Shower tray repair for Tamfourhill homes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

About our shower tray repair in Tamfourhill

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. If you are dealing with a damaged area around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

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

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Read our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Tamfourhill

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
