Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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.

About our shower tray repair in Torbothie

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a crack across the base and a dull, stained or worn surface.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How the visit works

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

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Torbothie

For anyone letting property in or around Torbothie, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Torbothie use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Torbothie questions

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of North Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you come to Torbothie?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Torbothie from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
