About our shower tray repair in Birchburn
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you have edge chips from dropped bottles and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can generally put it right, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.
Rural addresses like Birchburn just need a little planning, and we’ll plan the visit around it.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
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 trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Replacement in Birchburn means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
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 items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Common questions in Birchburn
Will you travel to Birchburn?
Of course; we work in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

When to call us in Birchburn
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on. For a rural address like Birchburn, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
