Shower tray repair at your home in Maddiston
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and damage around the waste, we can help, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Common problems we fix in Maddiston
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

- Aftercare advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Falkirk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Maddiston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Maddiston
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
