About our shower tray repair in Bughtlin
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and movement when you stand on it.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bughtlin
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

How we price shower tray repair

- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bughtlin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Bughtlin
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bughtlin and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Advice
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why Bughtlin customers choose us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
