What we’re called out for in Lyne of Skene
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Lyne of Skene
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Lyne of Skene: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
