DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
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 can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When to call us in Dalwhinnie
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Cracks running from the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

FAQs for Dalwhinnie
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you come to Dalwhinnie?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dalwhinnie and the rest of Highland. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Dalwhinnie. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PH19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
