We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

FAQs for Kirkton of Tough

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Kirkton of Tough. Prices do not change with location.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kirkton of Tough. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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.

Repair or replace in Kirkton of Tough?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kirkton of Tough. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
