Shower tray repair in Achiltibuie, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Achiltibuie
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Achiltibuie?
We do. Technicians travel to Achiltibuie from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
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 can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
