Shower Tray Repair for Langholm homes
Problem with your shower tray in Langholm? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we handle shower tray repair in Langholm
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Nearby places to Langholm
What else we do in Langholm
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Langholm. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Do you need shower tray repair in Langholm?
Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- A tray that flexes
- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
