Shower Tray Repair for Kelton Hill homes
Our technicians come to Kelton Hill for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips caused during fitting
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Shower tray repair in Kelton Hill without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting, we can help.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we are called out for in Kelton Hill
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, normally along the edges or by the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to look after the finish

Kelton Hill questions
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work in Kelton Hill?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Kelton Hill and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Kelton Hill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

See our pricing.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 usually cheaper.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Kelton Hill
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
