Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- One price list for the entire UK
- Most jobs done in one visit

How we handle shower tray repair in Linburn
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and chips on the edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
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.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Questions from Linburn
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Linburn
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
