Shower tray repair in Craigside, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and movement when you stand on it, we can help, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Craigside
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Most clients in Craigside get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in Craigside?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Craigside
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
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.
