How we handle shower tray repair in Edinburgh Waterfront
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Edinburgh Waterfront
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Edinburgh Waterfront.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Edinburgh Waterfront
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Edinburgh Waterfront. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
When to call us in Edinburgh Waterfront
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Common reasons people in Edinburgh Waterfront contact us are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
