For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ferryden as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire 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, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Ferryden questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel

When to call us in Ferryden
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- A cracked shower tray

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
