Questions from Kirriemuir
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are there extra charges for Kirriemuir?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Shower tray repair in Kirriemuir, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What else we do in Kirriemuir
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
The process
On the day, 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.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Kirriemuir
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scuffs and light scratches
What to look for in a quote

- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Landlord and trade work in Kirriemuir
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What affects the price in Kirriemuir
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Kirriemuir, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
