How we handle shower tray repair in Ashgill
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Lanarkshire.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Signs you need shower tray repair in Ashgill
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Clients normally contact us about:
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
Questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
