Shower Tray Repair for Cairnbaan homes
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing at your home in Cairnbaan, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused during fitting
- A damaged area around the waste
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Shower tray repair in Cairnbaan without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Cairnbaan: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Cairnbaan?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cairnbaan. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
