How we handle shower tray repair in Helensburgh
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What else we do in Helensburgh
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What we are called out for in Helensburgh
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches in the surface
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
