Shower tray repair in Dalmellington without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a cracked shower tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray broken in more than one place

What else we do in Dalmellington
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Repairing versus replacing in Dalmellington
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dalmellington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it
