Shower tray repair in Carluddon, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit, on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Carluddon. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Do you need shower tray repair in Carluddon?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why Carluddon clients choose us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
