About our shower tray repair in Lucklawhill
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What we’re called out for in Lucklawhill

- Scratches in the surface

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lucklawhill, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Lucklawhill
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Lucklawhill
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you work in Lucklawhill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lucklawhill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairing versus replacing in Lucklawhill
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
