Shower tray repair at your home in Milton of Buchanan
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are often asked to fix a cracked shower tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, in stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Milton of Buchanan
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
