DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Shower tray repair in Dunoon 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. Typical jobs include a cracked shower tray and damage from a refit or building work, across ceramic, cast iron and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Dunoon
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunoon. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
