Shower tray repair at your home in Milton Bridge
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can help, whatever the material.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Midlothian and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Questions from Milton Bridge
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Milton Bridge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
