Repair or replace in Trinity?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Trinity: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Trinity?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Trinity and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What affects the price in Trinity

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

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Trinity and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Trinity

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
