Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitlawburn
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Shower tray repair at your home in Whitlawburn
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and chips or cracks by the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
