About our shower tray repair in Boat of Garten
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Boat of Garten

Look out for any of the following:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
