Shower tray repair in Ardminish, 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 doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base, across enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
FAQs for Ardminish
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Ardminish.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlord and trade work in Ardminish
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ardminish?
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.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Cracks running from the waste
