Shower tray repair for Winchburgh homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Winchburgh

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and edge chips from dropped bottles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

When to call us in Winchburgh

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • A cracked shower tray

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about shower tray repair in Winchburgh

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there any odour?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the following day.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Winchburgh?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Winchburgh and the rest of West Lothian. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
