Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Shower tray repair in Ardfern, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage from a refit or building work, we can normally put it right.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Common questions in Ardfern
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
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 will tell you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron

Common problems we fix in Ardfern
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A crack across the base
- A tray that flexes
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
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 use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
