Shower tray repair in Meadowbank without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Meadowbank
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Are there extra charges for Meadowbank?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Landlord and trade work in Meadowbank
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
