Shower Tray Repair for Lilybank homes
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Lilybank and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Shower tray repair in Lilybank without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and cracks running from the waste.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Lilybank: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long does it take to cure?
Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover Lilybank?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lilybank. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Glasgow, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Lilybank, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What affects the price in Lilybank
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
