Shower tray repair at your home in Gallowgate
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches, we can usually put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Gallowgate
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Gallowgate questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Gallowgate. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What affects the price in Gallowgate
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Gallowgate, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
