Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

FAQs for Balnabruich
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Other services in Balnabruich
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
