About our shower tray repair in Gretna

Your questions about shower tray repair in Gretna
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
When can I use the shower again?
Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Gretna?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do you work in Gretna?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gretna. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Gretna
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Gretna, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What affects the price in Gretna
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Gretna
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
- A damaged area around the waste
Before booking anyone
- How to care for the finish
- When it can be used again
