Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
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.
About our shower tray repair in Charlestown
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and damage around the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
FAQs for Charlestown
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What areas do you cover?
All of Aberdeen, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When to call us in Charlestown
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- A damaged area around the waste

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
