What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Baberton. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
About our shower tray repair in Baberton
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’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, across acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh.

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Baberton?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Baberton questions
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
Across the UK, and that includes Baberton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
