Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Alva. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Shower tray repair in Alva, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and scuffs and light scratches.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Alva. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos 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.

Do you need shower tray repair in Alva?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage from a refit or building work

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
