About our shower tray repair in Bowhill
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and a crack across the base, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bowhill and across Fife.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Bowhill
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KY5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
