Shower tray repair at your home in Craigton
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Craigton: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Common problems we fix in Craigton
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- A cracked shower tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Craigton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything

What affects the price in Craigton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DD5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
