Shower tray repair near Jock's Lodge

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Jock's Lodge. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Jock's Lodge questions

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH7 postcode.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Jock's Lodge?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Jock's Lodge and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Jock's Lodge

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
