Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Shower tray repair in Addiewell, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 photos.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
