About our shower tray repair in Forfar
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and damage around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Common problems we fix in Forfar
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips on the edges

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Forfar, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Advice
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
