Shower tray repair in Ashgrove without replacing anything
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from a refit or building work and scratches from cleaning or grit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Ashgrove, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Ashgrove: your questions answered
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ashgrove?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, generally along the edges or by the waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scuffs and light scratches

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Materials we work on in Ashgrove
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
