Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Shower tray repair in Aberdeen, done in place
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste, in cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Aberdeen: your questions answered
How much does shower tray repair cost in Aberdeen?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AB21 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Aberdeen
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Do you need shower tray repair in Aberdeen?
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Repair or replace in Aberdeen?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
