About our shower tray repair in Newcraighall
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Newcraighall and across Edinburgh.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Your questions about shower tray repair in Newcraighall
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.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Newcraighall.
What areas do you cover?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you redo the sealant?

Do you cover Newcraighall?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Newcraighall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Newcraighall
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
