About our shower tray repair in Botany
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 will tell you if that’s the case. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

- No need to remove anything

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Common questions in Botany
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Botany and the rest of Glasgow. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Botany
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Botany as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
