Shower tray repair at your home in Kingarth
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and chipped corners or rims, we can usually put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kingarth
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kingarth. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Kingarth, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
