About our shower tray repair in Alness
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Alness. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alness use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Alness
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairing versus replacing in Alness
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- 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.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Common questions in Alness
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Highland.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the following day.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
