Do you need shower tray repair in Kingsbarns?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlord and trade work in Kingsbarns
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Questions from Kingsbarns
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Fife.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What we cannot put right
