How we handle shower tray repair in East Mains
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your G74 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
East Mains: your questions answered
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including East Mains and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Repair or replace in East Mains?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
