Shower tray repair in Dalmeny, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s chips on the edges and a crack across the base, we can typically put it right.
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.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairing versus replacing in Dalmeny
A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Do you need shower tray repair in Dalmeny?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting

More services for Dalmeny
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Dalmeny
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Dalmeny. Prices do not change with location.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for 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, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
