How we handle shower tray repair in Kelhead
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. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Do you need shower tray repair in Kelhead?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions from Kelhead
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dumfries and Galloway.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
