Repair or replace in Inverallochy?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Inverallochy, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Inverallochy: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your AB43 postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you work in Inverallochy?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Inverallochy for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
