How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Kirkurd questions

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Scottish Borders.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
