Signs you need shower tray repair in Kirkton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.

What a repair can’t fix

Materials we work on in Kirkton

- Cast iron

- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Kirkton
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kirkton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
