DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Shower tray repair in Eddleston, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and chips on the edges, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What else we do in Eddleston
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Eddleston: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?

How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
