DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Shower tray repair in Craigleith without replacing anything
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Typical jobs include chips caused during fitting and chipped corners or rims, on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Craigleith. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Craigleith. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Craigleith, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Craigleith
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Craigleith?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Before booking anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
