Shower tray repair in Barnton, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches in the surface, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Barnton
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Barnton?
We do. Technicians travel to Barnton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Repair or replace in Barnton?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
