DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Shower tray repair at your home in Kilbirnie
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes 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 for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kilbirnie, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Kilbirnie
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
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.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Kilbirnie questions
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to Kilbirnie?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kilbirnie from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Kilbirnie, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
