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 a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Shower tray repair in Lambhill without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Lambhill
Are there extra charges for Lambhill?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work in Lambhill?
We do. We send a technician to Lambhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Common problems we fix in Lambhill
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For anyone letting property in or around Lambhill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lambhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
