About our shower tray repair in Gatehouse of Fleet
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Around Gatehouse of Fleet, bungalows and family homes often have walk-in showers. If the tray is firm, any crack or chip can be repaired in place.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gatehouse of Fleet use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Gatehouse of Fleet questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover the whole of Dumfries and Galloway?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go. For a home in Gatehouse of Fleet, we normally park close by and start immediately.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
