Shower tray repair at your home in Carnsmerry
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. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and edge chips from dropped bottles, in stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL26 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. 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 cause damage underneath.
What we are called out for in Carnsmerry
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What to look for in a quote

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
