Shower tray repair in Dunlop without replacing anything
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunlop
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Dunlop
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry

Advice
Our work in Dunlop
Dunlop is about 7 miles north of Kilmarnock, in East Ayrshire. From the centre of Dunlop to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Dunlop is one of 53 places in East Ayrshire where we work. Our nearest city page is Glasgow, about 14 miles away.
Our visits in KA3 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. That includes homes on Station Road, Main Street and Livingston Terrace. We also cover the places around Dunlop: Burnhouse (2 miles west), Barony and Castle of Corsehill (2 miles south), Lugton (2 miles north), Stewarton (2 miles south) and Greenhills (2 miles west). We also work in nearby towns such as Kilmarnock (7 miles south), Annanhill (7 miles south), Galston (10 miles south-east), Mauchline (15 miles south-east), New Farm Loch (7 miles south) and Bonnyton (7 miles south).
Near you in Dunlop
We visit homes around Clandeboye School, Parish Church and Stewarton Academy. Dunlop has its own railway station: Dunlop station. Nearby you’ll also find Dunlop Castle (1.1 miles east) and Stewarton Museum (2.3 miles south). The countryside around Dunlop includes Blae Loch and Dunlop Hill.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Dunlop questions
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover the whole of East Ayrshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Dunlop and the rest of East Ayrshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunlop. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t 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.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
