Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Shower tray repair in Monkland without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and damage around the waste, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Do you need shower tray repair in Monkland?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches

- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
