About our shower tray repair in Auldgirth

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Auldgirth

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Auldgirth use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dumfries and Galloway.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
