Shower tray repair in Carnkie, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include chips on the edges and damage around the waste, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
If you’re in Carnkie and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
