Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our shower tray repair in Alves
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Alves and across Moray.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Alves

Alves questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Alves?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Moray?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you work in Alves?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Alves for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
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.
