Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Muthill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Muthill questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you come to Muthill?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Muthill and the rest of Perth and Kinross. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Muthill

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks running from the waste

  • Chips on the edges

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
