- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Cracks running from the waste
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we handle shower tray repair in Dunscore
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlord and trade work in Dunscore
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunscore use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What we do, step by step

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Dunscore
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
When to call us in Dunscore
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
