Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Do you need shower tray repair in Dirleton?
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- A crack across the base
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips caused during fitting
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repairing versus replacing in Dirleton
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
